Peer Review & Second Opinion

Independent Technical Reviews by BM Process Management

Independent Technical Validation

BM Process Management offers independent peer review and second opinion services for technical packages, engineering documentation, and project designs. Whether you’re planning an investment, revising a design, or validating consultant work, a second set of experienced eyes can help reduce risk and confirm the quality of critical decisions.

We support clients with subject specific reviews, full package assessments, and due diligence checks before procurement, construction, or acquisition. Our goal is to provide practical feedback; not just critique, but clear technical insights that guide decision making.

Our Scope of Support

Design Package Review

We review process engineering deliverables including PFDs, P&IDs, datasheets, utility designs, layouts, and safety documentation. Our input highlights inconsistencies, gaps, or areas for improvement.

Specialist Subject Input

We provide targeted reviews in areas like emissions control, pressure systems, utilities, or automation logic; especially where in house knowledge may need reinforcement.

Due Diligence Support

Before an acquisition, asset purchase, or major revamp, we assess the technical status of facilities and documents to ensure design intent, safety, and regulatory alignment are in place.

Decision Validation

If you’re unsure whether a proposed solution is the right one, we offer impartial input; either confirming the approach or providing alternative options to consider.

Operator Oriented Input

We also assess if the engineering solution is practical from an operations and maintenance point of view going beyond what looks good on paper.

Our Approach

We’re not here to criticize; we’re here to contribute. Our goal is to help you avoid costly oversights, ensure documentation quality, and support your technical and financial confidence.

Because we’ve worked both as project engineers and as owners’ representatives, we understand what good engineering should look like and where shortcuts can lead to trouble.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of projects do you review?

We review process and utility system designs, safety studies, and upgrade proposals for terminals, utilities, chemicals, and energy systems; both greenfield and brownfield.

Can you support external due diligence processes?

Yes. We support technical due diligence for investors, buyers, and internal audits, reviewing engineering integrity and regulatory risk.

Do you work alongside other consultants or contractors?

Yes. We frequently act as an independent reviewer, even when another consultant is already engaged, ensuring unbiased technical input.

How early in the process should peer review happen?

Peer review is most effective during basic or detailed design phases, but we also support reviews before commissioning, or post construction for operational evaluation.
