Engineering and construction
Building sustainable value — for today and tomorrow
Our E&C practice has extensive experience providing strategic, financial and operational advice to E&C companies. The Canadian team is an integral part of our global engineering and construction network.
The Canadian engineering and construction (E&C) industry is a complex, rapidly evolving sector offering high risk and high rewards to players at all levels. CEOs in this industry face constant pressure to identify and exploit opportunities for growth, manage risk, control costs and attract and retain skilled people who can complete projects on time and on budget. It isn't easy.
To stay ahead of competitors, E&C companies need to be aware of how their industry is changing and the forces that are driving that change.
On our Global E&C website, we discuss other major issues affecting the sector, including:
- Financing of projects
- Emerging markets
- Business control/project management
- People in the industry
- Cost reduction
These are not insignificant challenges. It takes industry-specific knowledge and dedication to continued growth to manage these pressures and create sustainable value.
