Learn About a Project Controls Career with C&I Engineering

An advocate for the client and the project

In project controls we estimate the capital costs for projects as well as track actuals against those budgeted numbers. We handle project schedules for project teams and we help clients schedule the projects we work on.

We like to think of this group as an advocate for the project. We help keep projects on schedule and in budget, and keep the clients informed about each and every detail.

There is a lot of client interaction. We tailor estimates for each plant. We are very detailed and transparent so the client understands not only all the costs, but also the justification behind them, getting them involved as much as we can in the process. Capital project costs can be significant. We involve our clients in developing the estimate, which helps eliminate surprises at the end of a project.

“People at C&I are recognized for the great work they do. When you look around and see so many who are devoted to doing the best work they can, it’s contagious.”
