Construction Consulting Services
ProEdge’s guiding principle is to offer clients pro-active and practical solutions that are cost effective and that maximize success and mitigate risks. The experience garnered over years in the construction industry provides an in-depth understanding of client needs, and insights into the types of issues that can lead to delays and cost overruns. Clients are assured of receiving solid, workable advice tailored to their needs and professionally prepared analyses, expert reports and claims.
