Technical Consulting
Our engineers and technical advisors assist our clients in assessing, developing, operating and optimizing ventures through a range of services—from preliminary studies to comprehensive maintenance and operational strategies.
Project Development
We help develop projects from initial design and procurement strategies through project delivery systems.
Engineering & Design
Our engineers provide innovative, state-of-the-art engineering designs and solutions including design safety engineering, process design and control, manufacturing engineering, and control-system integration to design-cost effective facilities with built-in flexibility of operations.
Project Management
We provide single-point management responsibility for the entire project life cycle, from planning and design through construction, validation, start-up, operations, maintenance and management, and final project closeout.
Project management is executed to our Project Execution Procedures—our uniform, company-wide guidelines for conducting business to the highest standards of consistency, safety, quality, cost and schedule control, efficiency and productivity.
Our rich history of international project leadership provides unmatched experience as a subcontract manager. This experience in subcontract management, and the protocols that go with it, apply to both subcontractors to Washington Division and managed subcontractors on behalf of a customer.
Construction
To achieve the highest levels of quality and project schedule and budget performance, our construction experts work closely with our project engineers to integrate the most efficient completion of the project’s planning and scheduling.
Our construction services are all-inclusive and are enhanced by our integrated approach—from site selection and concept development to program management and turnkey responsibility for technologically complex projects. Our construction services are not limited by the size, complexity, or geographic location of a project. We specialize in large design/build projects and provide the resources and talent necessary to meet all requirements of a specific project.
Our goal is to demonstrate flexibility and responsiveness to provide the most cost-effective, value-added construction services that best meet clients' needs while maintaining one of the safest workforces in the world.
