Strategic advisory and financial stewardship for heritage rehabilitation, institutional capital projects, and security-classified facilities. We serve as the owner's fiduciary representative — from Treasury Board submission through to final commissioning.
Every monument the modern world inherits was once a working building — financed, governed, and eventually abandoned. The Acropolis is not a story about marble. It is a case study in capital programming, fiduciary discipline, and the cost of letting maintenance slip past the point where rehabilitation becomes archaeology.
Our advisory practice spans four domains — each governed by the same fiduciary standard and financial discipline.
Cost management and owner representation for designated heritage buildings. We navigate FHBRO classification, heritage masonry protocols, and the tension between conservation standards and contemporary performance.
Financial stewardship for federal and institutional capital programs. Progressive estimate refinement from Class D through Class A, with full Treasury Board compliance and independent audit integration.
Cost validation and change order defense on security-classified construction programs. We support general contractors navigating the unique financial controls of SECRET and TOP SECRET environments.
Full-spectrum owner representation for discerning private clients. White Glove site protocols, open-book financial transparency, and zero-surprise execution from foundation to final clean.
We bring the same zero-variance discipline to a $200M federal heritage rehabilitation as we do to a high-value residential build. The scale changes. The standard does not.
Every engagement is governed by three immutable operational disciplines — the voices that protect your capital, your timeline, and your position.
Measured, diplomatic, and protective. Speaks the language of institutional finance — CapEx, OpEx, ROI, variance. Every recommendation data-driven. Every position defensible under independent audit.
The ruthless auditor. Budgets, change orders, payments, cost control. Variance is the enemy. Every dollar tracked, every deviation explained, every anomaly resolved before payment release.
The "Velvet Hammer" — soft words, hard facts. Cites the contract, the ledger, and the law. Firm but polite. Every conflict resolved with precision, never with ego.
Our protocols are field-tested disciplines that protect vulnerable materials, enforce financial transparency, and deliver to specification.
Bridging the gap between "Turnkey Design" and "Site Reality" — executing vulnerable living finishes with material-specific protocols that protect the client's investment from rough-in through final clean. The same financial discipline we apply to institutional capital programs, scaled to the residential context.
All finish hardware inspected on delivery, re-boxed until Final Clean. Zero tolerance for site damage.
Humidity monitoring 48 hours before millwork delivery. Face-frame cabinetry protected from checking and warping.
Universal Level Line by rotary laser before framing. All trades reference the single truth, not the rough subfloor.
Never guess. Always cite the contract, the ledger, or the law. Every claim backed by evidence. Every variance explained.
Full transparency on every dollar. Committed vs. Actual — explained, not hidden.
Deviation is the enemy of trust. Every movement tracked, every anomaly resolved.
The contract governs. Not memory, not verbal agreements, not handshakes.
Your investment is the mission. Every protocol, every decision serves that singular objective.
Luc Simard founded LSPP Solutions to provide independent financial stewardship and strategic advisory for clients who demand institutional-grade oversight of their most significant capital investments. His practice bridges the disciplines of construction management, contract negotiation, and fiduciary cost control — with particular depth in heritage rehabilitation and federal institutional projects.
A native bilingual professional based in the National Capital Region, Luc brings cross-jurisdictional fluency spanning Québec civil law and Ontario common law, federal procurement frameworks, and Treasury Board compliance requirements. His advisory model positions LSPP as the owner's fiduciary representative — independent of the execution team, accountable solely to the asset.
LSPP Solutions operates as the financial stewardship and strategic advisory layer within consortium structures for large-scale capital programs. We do not compete with our general contractor partners for execution scope. We complement them.
Our model positions LSPP as the owner's fiduciary representative — providing independent cost validation, change order defense, variance tracking, and procurement strategy while our partners execute the work. This division of labour eliminates the conflict of interest inherent in self-managed construction budgets.
For federal programs, we bring native bilingual capability, Treasury Board submission support, and cross-jurisdictional fluency (Québec civil law, Ontario common law) to consortium bids that require demonstrated financial governance.
Field intelligence, financial protocols, and strategic commentary from the intersection of heritage rehabilitation, institutional capital, and federal procurement.
The gap between "project management" and "financial stewardship" costs owners thousands in untracked variance, unsigned change orders, and front-loaded billings. Here's what independent oversight actually looks like.
Three separate ledgers serving three different questions. The architecture every owner should demand - and the diagnostic that reveals which contractors have it.
Five things to verify before you sign a cheque. The thirty-minute discipline that catches the errors no one else will find.
Whether you are planning a heritage rehabilitation, managing a security-classified facility program, or require independent financial stewardship for a complex capital project — we bring the discipline your investment demands.
