Clients Talk Back

We all work hard to build successful relationships with clients, submit the best proposals and conduct interview presentations that have us high-fiving at the end.  But are our Prospects/Clients really seeing us in the crowd? Join us for our Clients Talk Back event to find out what traits, processes, team composition, experience and more that clients look for when selecting service partners. The panelists’ experience in the selection process, as well as in the delivery of design and construction projects, will provide insights helpful to any firm interested in better serving their clients and positioning themselves for new work!

The SMPS Triangle Chapter is honored to have three distinguished Client/Owner Representatives in a panel forum discussion.

 

Panelists

  • Pierre Gingue, President, PEG Contracting
  • David Parker, Preconstruction Manager, Duke Realty
  • Fred Patrick, AIA, PE, LEED AP, Director of Facilities Design & Construction, UNC Greensboro

 

Our panelists will be led in discussion by Theresa Leahey, Director of Business Development, Affiliated Engineers.
