In the world of complex energy infrastructure, the traditional path for delivering substation projects, featuring a sequential handoff from design to procurement to construction, is filled with potential challenges. Each transition has potential for misalignment, rework and cost growth, adding layers of risk that can jeopardize project success.
By shifting critical decisions upstream through early engineering engagement and leveraging integrated teams, the risk profile of a project can be fundamentally changed. When an EPC firm like Burns & McDonnell can team early with internal construction partners like AZCO, it is able to do more than just design for constructability — it can unlock alternative delivery solutions that offer greater certainty in cost, schedule and quality.
