Providing Management Solutions
That Make A Difference
PBS&J provides public and private clients with a wide range of solutions that support efforts ranging from large-scale program management to general operational improvement.
With a clear vision of who we want to be – the consultant of choice – PBS&J has differentiated itself by expanding the firm’s resources in emerging technologies and practices and combining them with a solid understanding of our clients’ businesses in order to provide effective management solutions.
Recognizing the power of information for proactive management, we offer full-service capabilities that allow us to be a single-source solution for all facets of information management – from field surveys and data collection through training and implementation. We have developed a suite of software tools that facilitate the quick analysis of relationships, trends, and patterns. Unique interfaces make our information systems user-friendly, and their availability through the Internet or intranets makes them convenient desktop tools without a huge capital investment.
Specialty products include GIS-based permit management systems, which centralize all permit information into one manageable and accessible system. Our customizable capital asset, facilities, and property management systems assist clients in reducing costs and improving scheduling and maintenance operations with inventory, status assessment, and funding applications. These systems support the Government Accounting Standards Board Statement 34 requirements; renewal and replacement programs; and capacity, management, operations, and maintenance reporting.
PBS&J’s business management professionals blend expert-level advice with information solutions to advise clients about the application of technology for operational and efficiency improvements. They also assist in developing performance measurements, policies, and procedures, and they work with our clients to develop and implement quality control and assurance plans and programs to achieve a greater level of efficiency. Integrating people development, team building, and business processes, they provide enterprisewide frameworks for accelerating business performance.
For clients who require complete program management services, PBS&J offers seamless access to all of our firm’s services and resources – nationwide. We integrate the latest technological tools with historical databases and our own industry experience to develop accurate cost estimates and schedules that help control costs and keep work programs on track. We perform professional risk and construction claims analyses that protect our clients’ interests, and we use project-specific web sites to improve overall program and project management.
Whether the need is for skilled professionals to fill critical positions during peak work periods or full-time, onsite management staff for capital improvements, PBS&J identifies and addresses the specific needs of each client. Our reputation for program management success is based on long-term service to clients who know that they can count on PBS&J for honest answers, consistent performance, and innovative approaches to challenging issues.
Perhaps the greatest management challenge is how to prepare for emergencies. To fortify and protect the infrastructure that we help plan, design, and construct, PBS&J is on the front lines with our clients, addressing emergency preparedness and homeland security on a project-by-project, site-by-site basis. We perform vulnerability assessments for our infrastructure assets and provide mitigation plans and tools that will help to minimize the impacts of natural, technological, and human-caused hazards. Our hurricane evacuation plans and tools are in use by many coastal states. We are providing a systematic approach to risk management, assessing and quantifying risk to states, communities, facilities, and critical infrastructure. And we are developing and implementing response plans when disasters occur.
