About Richard Utting Associates LLP
Shaping Your Vision Across East Anglia and Beyond
We are Richard Utting Associates (RUA), an independent firm of Construction Cost and Project Managers. With a strong presence in Norwich, Cambridge, and Colchester, we’ve built our reputation on being more than just consultants; we are partners who shape projects from the very first conversation.
Whether you are a landowner, a residential developer, or a commercial client, our goal is simple: to ensure your brief is achieved while maximising the value of your investment. We believe in honesty and integrity, and at all times, we are fully committed to our clients and the specific needs of their business.
From Viability to Delivery: How We Help
