Streamlining the process

The technologically differentiated approach of iEPCI better manages the complete work scope and streamlines every part of the process. Among the bene? ts: • One global contractor promotes a lean execution of one project and one team, avoiding duplication in position and competency.

• Integrated project planning compresses project delivery schedules. • Seamless infrastructure delivery reaches installation faster, eliminating handovers and ? oat between con- tracts. • Reduced project interfaces mitigate risks and complex- ity and improve coordination. • Streamlined procurement processes enable faster project kick-off.

To support its integrated efforts, the company has built
