Engineering & Operations

Corporations today are urged by shareholders to think globally and act locally. The resulting internationalization of operations, supply chains, and financial markets has spurred perpetual demand for global engineering services and infrastructure development. In turn, this rapid global growth and expansion has initiated a renewed focus on improving resource exploration and development in order to meet the burgeoning needs.

Competing with these rapid expansion objectives, however, increasing environmental pressures, decreasing natural resources, and geopolitical unrest are creating unique challenges for private corporations in efficient and successful expansion. Similarly, for the international public sector community, the competing objectives of economic development and environmental responsibility put unique pressures on supporting infrastructure development.

International engineering and infrastructure firms face these issues as not only a reality of daily operations, but also as an opportunity for expansion in the midst of uncertainty. The Avascent Group works with firms in the Engineering and Infrastructure products and services arena to help them maximize the opportunity potential and minimize risk by better understanding and addressing key strategic issues.

Areas of support include:

• Service and supply value chain;
• Understanding and positioning for the next wave of geographical and/or technological development opportunities;
• Balancing the need for local relationships and execution by global entities;
• Managing risk and security across geopolitical and financial uncertainty;
• Developing a tight supply-chain for timely and efficient delivery;
• Meeting increasingly stringent environmental and regulatory demands;
• Understanding and evaluating next-generation resource exploration and development technologies
• Understanding alternative and renewable energy technologies, and evaluating the impact on long-term operating expense;
