We bring an independent perspective to our clients that is aligned with their goals and unencumbered by competing interests of the numerous stakeholders involved with large capital projects. This distinct focus on successful economic delivery mitigates many frequent problems that lead to cost overruns or schedule delays on 90 percent of major projects, according to our research. Our teams—representing a unique combination of strategic advisors and senior practitioners with decades of hands-on experience—work alongside clients to create value and impact that other traditional project participants may miss or ignore.
Our work on more than $1.2 trillion in capital projects over the last decade has generated significant and lasting value for clients worldwide.
