Who We Are
We started ProCoreMax because we got tired of watching projects fail for predictable reasons. Not budget issues or bad luck—just risks that nobody spotted early enough.
Our Beginning
Back in 2018, our founder spent months on a construction project in Taipei that went sideways. The warning signs were there from week two, but nobody had systems to catch them. That failure cost everyone involved—time, money, and trust.
So we built what we wish we'd had. A practical approach to spotting project risks before they become problems. Not fancy software or complicated frameworks. Just careful analysis and honest conversations about what could go wrong.
We work with businesses across Taiwan who need someone to look at their projects with fresh eyes. Manufacturing operations, tech rollouts, facility expansions—any project where getting it wrong costs real money.
What Drives Us
These aren't wall posters. This is how we actually work with clients.
Straight Talk
We tell you what we see, not what you want to hear. If your timeline's unrealistic or your budget's too tight, you'll know in our first meeting. Saves everyone time.
Real Analysis
We dig into the details other consultants skip. Vendor reliability, regulatory changes, supply chain weak points. The boring stuff that actually matters when things get complicated.
Practical Focus
No theoretical models or academic papers. We focus on risks you can actually do something about, with solutions that fit your budget and timeline. If we can't make it actionable, we don't mention it.
How We Got Here
Seven years of figuring out what actually helps projects succeed.
Started With One Question
After that failed Taipei project, we spent six months interviewing project managers across different industries. Asked them all the same thing: what warning signs did you miss? Turned those answers into our first assessment framework.
First Major Client
A manufacturing company in Taichung hired us to review their facility expansion. Found three supplier dependencies that would have delayed their launch by four months. They referred us to five other businesses that year.
Expanded Our Team
Brought on specialists with backgrounds we didn't have—regulatory compliance, supply chain logistics, financial modeling. Made our assessments more thorough without losing the practical focus.
Refined Our Process
After working with over 80 projects, we rebuilt our methodology from scratch. Kept what worked, dropped what didn't. Now we can spot the critical risks faster and give clients clearer action plans.
Looking Forward
This year we're focusing on helping businesses prepare for projects they haven't started yet. Early risk assessment, before commitments are made. It's easier to avoid problems than fix them halfway through.
The People Behind the Work
Small team, broad experience. We've all managed projects that went wrong before we learned how to spot the problems early.
Oskar Brandt
Lead Risk Analyst
Spent 12 years managing infrastructure projects before switching to risk assessment. Knows what goes wrong in the field because he's dealt with most of it personally. Speaks Mandarin and handles our Taiwan-based client work.
Linnea Vestergaard
Operations Specialist
Background in supply chain management and regulatory compliance. She's the one who reads the boring documents everyone else skips—and finds the clauses that cause problems six months later. Keeps our assessments grounded in real-world constraints.
