# Alex Rius Consultants Ltd.
Alex Rius Consultants (ARC) is a Cambridge-based building performance and compliance specialist serving the residential development sector across new build, retrofit, and institutional portfolios. The firm bridges a persistent gap in construction: the disconnect between what designers intend, what regulators approve, and what actually gets built.
ARC works with housebuilders, developers, PRS operators, and BTR schemes to deliver homes that perform as designed. Their approach combines technical advisory—around energy, thermal comfort, fabric strategy, and façade design—with hands-on project management that extends from design coordination through to site installation and handover. This is not consultancy that ends with a report; ARC embeds performance intent into procurement specifications, installation controls, and quality assurance protocols.
The firm's particular expertise lies in retrofit complexity and envelope strategy, where coordination failures are common and costly. They excel at converting ambitious retrofit targets into technically credible, sequenced delivery plans. They also support manufacturers deploying modular wall systems, ensuring interface control and installation quality align with performance claims.
What differentiates ARC is their focus on the failure points other consultants often miss: envelope continuity, evidence chain integrity, and the practical handover logic that proves performance claims. In an increasingly regulated environment where new homes must demonstrate compliance and retrofit assets face retrofit obligation pressures, ARC provides the technical clarity and controlled delivery route that reduces both risk and credibility gaps.
