Industry Challenges

No matter what happens, you have to produce for your customer — you need to keep lights on and spaces heated, regardless of what happens with your equipment or fuel costs. There’s also increasing pressure to lower your carbon footprint and approach carbon neutrality while increasing capacity.

Capabilities

Consider your needs covered — utility infrastructure plans, complete project design, and commissioning and startup expertise, including important long-term links to overall campus growth plans, all with an eye toward fuel and regulatory flexibility. Your future capacity remains top-of-mind, as well as the long-term reliability of your facilities, the highest efficiency possible, and compliance.

Customized Partnership

Expect one-stop design expertise from planning through design and construction support, with the flexibility to run projects or support your in-house staff. A business case analysis considers your core business drivers and helps you articulate issues to stakeholders. Other variables include total operating costs, including variable and fixed costs, fuel costs, labor, insurance, and capitalization. Our utilities clients often look decades into the future. Whether your challenge requires a temporary solution or one that will stand the test of time, let’s chart the best course together.
