Industries We Proudly Serve
Power: In this era of uncertainty, utility companies face tough decisions about existing generation facilities and tough decisions about where to make their next capital investment. Shifting regulatory, financial, and political realities make development decisions harder than ever for power generators. Whether you are in the planning stages, considering plant upgrades, or ready to implement a capital addition, our power staff can help take the guesswork out of every project. Our power generation expertise has helped companies meet generation planning, owner’s engineer, and design needs. Our services span from the plant power block to supporting infrastructure. By combining our planning modeling tools with our design expertise, we can lead you to the right project and optimum financial outcome. The result: maximized operations with a keen eye on revenue.
Oil and Gas: The downstream oil and gas market of refineries, petrochemical and chemical facilities is an active market in North America and worldwide. We recognize there’s not a one-size fits all approach to upgrading or assessing operations at a refinery or petrochemical facility, because each one is unique and impacted by a multitude of factors.
As refineries respond to changing regulations and alternate feedstock supply sources, we provide permitting, compliance and infrastructure development support.
Commercial: Our planning and design professionals work with developers and communities to support their efforts from the origination of a concept through the design, construction and delivery of a finished product. We provide a full range of development services; the due diligence needed to make initial decisions on the validity of a project; the visioning and outreach needed to help mold preliminary concepts; the regulatory expertise necessary to procure entitlements and permits; and the site planning, architecture, landscape architecture, engineering and urban design services involved in producing a comprehensive design of a development or redevelopment project.
Development and redevelopment are changing, with burgeoning demands for community outreach and public involvement, greater need for environmental and ecological analysis and conservation, the ever-increasing complexity of regulations, and the on-going need to integrate myriad technical and financial issues. Our planning and design experts support developers at every step of the development process. They also provide access to the depth and breadth of knowledge found among our employee owners, ensuring that we can provide our developer clients the best technical advice and services at all points of the development process.
