Moon World Resorts Inc. (MWR) has appointed Rider Levett Bucknall (RLB), a leading global organization specialising in program management, cost management, quantity surveying, advisory services, sustainability services and built asset consultancy, as Program Managers + Cost Consultants across all worldwide MOON Smart City developments. The engagement will see RLB provide their expert services across MWR’s pre-development programs through full delivery lifecycle of each Smart City Masterplan, thus safeguarding budget discipline and schedule certainty.

With a global network and defining heritage spanning over two centuries, RLB brings a renowned track record to unique and complex developments; from early days of pioneering quantity surveying to landmark projects such as the Sydney Opera House, HSBC’s Headquarters Building in Hong Kong, London UK’s Olympic Games, and City Center Nevada, to name a few.

It’s this same innovative thinking, global reach, and disciplined execution, which forms the driving force behind RLB's ethos "Where People Make Progress” which will assist MWR from masterplan design to build out delivery across every global region.

A Program Management + Cost Control Partnership Built for Global Scale and Complexity

RLB will provide Program Management + Cost Consultancy services ensuring budget discipline, schedule certainty, and sustainability standards are upheld from planning through delivery.

MOON will rise in North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East, East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Oceania, and Africa. MOON will entirely redefine what hospitality and entertainment can achieve at the intersection of innovation and the human experience. As planet Earth’s most anticipated, integrated, iconic hospitality development, MOON is perfectly positioned in a unique "Category of One".

Each MOON development is conceived as a Building of Global Significance, anchored by the world's largest true Sphere and a 556-acre masterplan integrating hospitality, entertainment, longevity + wellbeing, education, technology, attractions, luxury residences and AAA commercial real estate. The delivery mandate requires disciplined cost and risk management at a scale and complexity matched by few organizations worldwide; a mandate where RLB's two-century legacy and global reach is uniquely aligned.

Global Expertise Meets Visionary Development

"A development of MOON's scale and ambition demands a partner who can exert discipline while managing complexity. RLB have spent two centuries doing exactly this for some of the world's most demanding projects. RLB's expertise will provide our stakeholders and Regional Licensee partners with the necessary confidence MOON's industry defining goals will be matched by financial and operational rigor at every stage”.

--Sandra G. Matthews, Co-Founder and President, Moon World Resorts

“Projects of this scale require more than an ambitious vision. They require discipline, transparency and expertise to navigate complexity at every stage. RLB is excited to bring our global program management and cost consultancy capabilities to MOON, helping provide the structure, insight and confidence required to move from an extraordinary concept to successful delivery across markets around the world. We’re proud to support Moon World Resorts as it brings this unprecedented vision to life.”
