CRB Announces Design and Construction Groups Integration

CRB, a US-based engineering, architecture, construction, and consulting solutions company, announced on March 9, 2021 that it will be integrating its design and construction groups.

According to a company press release, CRB decided to integrate the groups to further focus on end-to-end design and construction organization in order to expand project execution and improve its client and employee experience. Specifically, the integration will include:

• The establishment of the company’s new organization, Technical Operations, which will serve as a knowledge center that will allow internal and external experts to develop solutions that benefit clients and CRB’s vision.
• The realignment of the company’s design and construction groups across its North America and Europe regions where project execution teams will bring expertise to local markets and will be responsible for project performance within their regions.

“These changes build on the project delivery successes of our ONEsolution approach, which sees clients through from initial planning and design to construction and operational readiness,” said Ryan Schroeder, president of CRB, in the press release. “They also position CRB as a preeminent choice for clients at a time when global health threats, intense competition, and shifting consumer habits are threatening legacy project delivery models.”

“Our clients face pressure every day to deliver their products in the face of strict budget controls and increasingly stiff competition. The marketplace is changing, ‘warp speed’ is becoming a new norm, and we continuously see the undeniable advantage in projects where the owner, designer, and builder work aligned as partners,” Schroeder added in the press release. “For clients, we increase our ability to deliver remarkable project experiences when we can truly align ourselves as partners. For our people, these changes open new career opportunities that will allow us to attract and retain the best talent in the industry.”
