ENERGY & PROCESS INDUSTRIES
Volatile commodities. Technological disruption. Geopolitical forces. Counteracting supply and demand shifts. These pressures are challenging—and in some sectors disrupting—the energy and process industries. While optimism is rising for a market rebound, astute and nimble players—from E&P companies to refiners to renewable energy developers and traditional utilities—are reshaping their business models, revenue sources and cost structures. Drawing on our deep operating experience up and down the hydrocarbon and electric power value chain, we help companies redefine their competitiveness. One oil field services company reshaped its global field ops workforce to be 20% more productive while enhancing value to customers. A power generation services company gained 300 bps of margin by redefining pricing strategies to capture the full value of services being delivered. How did they do it? They worked with us!
Our global team of experts in Construction and EPC draws on deep experience improving performance and leading turnarounds for companies in this complex market. We help companies craft and execute growth strategies, navigate post-merger integrations and restructuring efforts, excel at financial forecasting, and manage cash flow and litigation with an eye to digitalization new tools. We also provide interim management at the CxO level.
With our help, a $3 billion engineering, procurement, and construction contractor obtained a $1.5 billion debt waiver, and, as a result, was able to secure new funding to grant continuity. A $15 billion engineering, procurement, and construction company saved $50 million in one year by managing engineering and projects more efficiently, and by rethinking its M&A and capital allocation strategies. We partner with clients like these to identify and seize the best opportunities to create and preserve value sustainably.
