BPS Ltd is a local, family run Planning Consultancy led by Mark & Lee Beckett.
What are the aims of BPS Ltd with Planning?
Our aim is to save you TIME, EFFORT and MONEY, it’s as simple as that!
We want to make planning available to everyone. We enjoy helping people achieve their dreams.
‘we plan for you to succeed’
What is Planning?
Planning is foresight, looking ahead, getting a set number of people doing a set number of tasks to achieve a specific goal. Planning allows you to do this in the most efficient way, foreseeing and avoiding as many problems as possible.
What are the benefits of Planning?
Gives you up to date information to make informed decisions. Planning enables you to communicate clearly to your teams, the right activities at the right time, saving you TIME, EFFORT and MONEY!
When should Planning be done?
As early as possible, from the idea/concept stage (see Project Life-cycle) on the What is Project Planning page.
Do I have to book full days of planning, as I only have a small project?
Our planning services are provided in ‘packets of time’ so you only buy the amount of time you need, when you need it. This approach makes professional Project Planning available to all individuals and SME businesses.
Why use BPS Ltd?
We have over 45 years experience and knowledge in industry. We value honesty and trust and feel we are able to plan effectively for you and your business, leaving you to do the things you do best.
Can I do Planning myself, for my business?
Most can do some degree of planning, but it will take up a lot of your valuable time. We are experienced planners using industry leading planning software and can plan quickly and efficiently. This takes the burden of planning from you, allowing you to do what you do best.
Can I use the same software?
If you purchase the software and license and have training then yes, but BPS Ltd have done all that for you so you invest in our time and expertise, saving you TIME, EFFORT and MONEY.
Can I have a one-off plan?
Yes, we tailor our solutions to meet your needs and expectations, following an initial FREE consultation.
If I have a BPS Ltd plan, can I Project Manage the project myself?
The benefit of having a professional plan is you have the tools to project manage yourself, along with the added benefit of our continued support, knowledge and experience.
How much will this cost?
Following the FREE initial consultation BPS Ltd would provide a quote based on the size and complexity of your Project, Business or Event. This will also include what your budget may be, and how much follow up you may require and what the savings for using Professional Planning will be.
Is Planning just another cost?
Planning is a valuable investment, keeping you on track with a potential Return On Investment (ROI) in excess of 500%. Would you invest £2,000 if you could save £10,000 after BPS Ltd costs. If Planning were to save you 1 hour per person per week on your project, business or event and you have 5 people it only takes 50 weeks to have a 500% saving.
When is the best time to start Planning?
NOW! Plan your business for the next 90 days, 1 year, 2 years or beyond, the next idea for your business, project or event. It is NEVER too early to Plan.
How far ahead can you plan?
Our software allows us to plan 20 years + in advance. Typically a business may require a 1 to 2 year plan, 3 to 5 year plan and even a high level 10 year plan. Projects can last from a few weeks to years or even indefinitely and events can be planned years in advance.
What types of Projects can BPS Ltd plan?
Large Extension, Self-Build House, New Shop, New Offices, Infrastructure Upgrade, Telecoms/IT, Retail Park, Small Factory Unit, Large Factory, Chemical Plant, Oil Gas. Pretty much anything you can think of, we apply the same principles across all projects but tailored to your needs.
What types of Businesses can benefit from professional planning?
Every type of business can benefit from professional planning, even those who have some in house planning.
What types of Event can BPS Ltd plan?
BPS Ltd can plan most types of events in a similar manner to how we plan all other projects. The ones we have agreed that we will not tackle is Weddings and Funerals as there are specialists in these areas already.
What size of Project can you Plan?
We are confident we can handle very small projects for example £5000 up to multi-million pound complex projects, involving a handful of people up to entire organisations.
