Expertise in Alternative Project Delivery Methods

On hundreds of large building and infrastructure projects, Intertek-PSI has demonstrated the ability to mobilize personnel, equipment, and resources to meet any aggressive schedules and project requirements. We have gained extensive experience in every possible project delivery method, procurement method, and contracting method, including:

• Construction Management at Risk (CMAR) or CM/GC
• Traditional Design-Bid-Build (DBB)
• Public-Private Partnerships (P3)
• Traditional Design-Build (DB)
• Progressive Design-Build (PDB)

We understand the key drivers of innovation in our industry's delivery methods and recognize that new funding initiatives and risk allocations are required to meet the growing complexity and expense of today's major projects.

Any way that you choose to finance, budget, procure, and schedule your next project, Intertek-PSI understands how to effectively collaborate with project stakeholders and team members to best contribute to the project's success. No matter what the method, our primary focus will continue to be delivering accurate data, quality assurance, comprehensive design solutions, competitively priced services, and rapid turnaround times.

Customized Solutions for Your Major Project

The Intertek-PSI Major Projects team collaborates with our executive leadership and regional directors to develop tailored solutions that optimize local, regional, and national resources to meet your specific requirements. This integrated approach allows us to scale testing capabilities as projects progress while maintaining consistent quality standards across all aspects of construction.

For projects requiring on-site testing capabilities, we establish fully accredited field laboratories that comply with all relevant regulatory standards. Our streamlined implementation process ensures AASHTO-accredited field laboratories can be operational within 60-90 days of trailer delivery and utility connection. These on-site facilities enhance testing capacity, provide schedule flexibility, and deliver rapid report turnaround which ultimately helps reduce costs, meet accelerated timelines, and minimize quality control issues that could lead to expensive rework.

Comprehensive Technical Services

Our Major Projects division provides integrated solutions across multiple technical disciplines:

• Construction Materials Testing and Inspection Services
• Geotechnical Engineering, Surveys & Drilling Services
• Advance Environmental Testing & Consulting Solutions

Partner Diversity Commitment

Intertek-PSI has a long tradition of positive working relationships with certified disadvantaged business enterprises (DBEs) that are owned and managed by minorities, women, persons with disabilities, veterans, service-disabled veterans, and other disadvantaged individuals. We take great pride in our track record and ongoing commitment to supplier diversity across all project types.

As a leader in the engineering consulting field, we recognize that cultivating a diverse internal workforce and a diverse pool of subcontractors and suppliers isn't just the right approach ethically but that it provides a distinct competitive advantage for our company and clients. Our diversity initiatives proactively identify and build relationships with disadvantaged businesses ensuring we create opportunities for collaboration while maintaining the highest standards of technical excellence.

Our Major Projects team and our diversity partners can help our clients meet or exceed diversity participation goals while maintaining exceptional quality standards with robust quality assurance and control management processes.
