Finally, our engineering teams deliver their work as an integral part of PE’s Project Life Cycle Process, working closely with your procurement, construction, and commissioning teams to achieve optimal overall project outcomes.
The PE Extreme Project and Construction Management practice maintains an integrated management and communication network that supports business unit objectives by developing and implementing strategies, optimizing people resources, championing technology tools, and bringing consistency across operations while assuring a high level of certainty for safety, performance, quality, cost, and schedule. PE Construction Project Management maintains an effective ability to plan, execute and complete projects by applying well-developed systems and programs driven by a philosophy of early construction involvement with a focus on facility startup.

PE has a zero tolerance policy on safety standards and all of our large construction projects reached VPP rating by OSHA.
The mission of the PE Procurement practice is to minimize procurement costs, lead times, and risks on every project. Procurement professionals achieve these goals through the design of procurement strategies and the application of robust execution processes. They rely on:
- Best-in-class procurement and scheduling optimization modeling systems
- Centers of procurement disciplines (vendor monitoring and surveillance, purchasing, expediting, logistics, and construction contract management)
- Sourcing categories (structural steel, electrical equipment, pumps, piping, etc.)
- Sourcing countries
- Project type
PE Procurement offers:
Sourcing strategy design
- Optimization of key strategic decisions such as direct sourcing of materials vs. subcontracting, global vs. regional vs. local sourcing, negotiation strategies, etc. leading to minimized procurement costs, lead times, and risks
Project cost estimating and planning optimization
- Leverage procurement price and lead time intelligence to maximize the accuracy of optimized estimates and schedules
Supplier prequalification
- Practical process applied to validate supplier capabilities maturity and reliability covering technology, employee skills, financials, sustainable development policies/capabilities, etc.
Bidders list optimization
- Leverage of supply market intelligence and PE closed-loop supplier performance management process to select the most capable, reliable, and competitive bidders
Tender management
- Creation of bid packages, issuance of tenders, management of vendor clarifications, bid analysis, and award recommendation. The process is supported by a structured set of tools.
Supplier quality surveillance
- Effective set of quality surveillance processes and procedures applied by a worldwide network of quality practitioners with expertise across all categories aimed at achieving systematic defect-free delivery of equipment and materials
Expediting
- Stringent set of expediting procedures applied by a worldwide network of expeditors aimed at achieving systematic timely delivery of equipment and materials
Logistics Management
- Management of all logistics activities
Site Materials Management
- Management of on-site and off-site warehousing
