Construction management
Cumming Group
Cumming Group is a project and cost management consultancy working for owners and developers across the built environment. Services cover program and project management, cost and commercial management, planning and scheduling, dispute resolution and avoidance, energy and sustainability solutions, advanced technologies work, and, in its UK and European business, building consultancy with technical due diligence.
Work is organised by sector rather than by a single delivery model. Sector teams cover workplace, higher education, K-12 education, transportation and infrastructure, highways, industrial and logistics, residential, student accommodation, research and manufacturing, hospitality and gaming, sports and recreation, themed entertainment, and culture and non-profit.
The firm was established in the United States in 1996 and reports more than 3,000 team members and over 70 offices globally, including about 700 team members across the UK and Europe. It ranks itself #12 among ENR 100 PM/CM firms and first among pure-play project management firms in the US. Several acquired firms now operate as standalone divisions: Gallagher, which merged in March 2023 and trades in Texas as Cumming Gallagher from May 2026; BTTC, a UK and Canada rail and energy infrastructure consultancy, in 2024; OutForm, a Dublin-based infrastructure advisor, in April 2026; and TLM, a data center program specialist, in July 2026.
Because coverage varies by sector, division, and region across the group's US, UK, Irish, and European businesses, buyers should confirm which office and division would staff a given assignment. Fees are not published on the site.
