Across the capital projects landscape, one recurring challenge continues to surface: misalignment between owner corporate business objectives and engineering solutions. This disconnect has led to countless projects running over budget and missing key schedule milestones, costing organizations both time and credibility and deteriorating owner financial and other business drivers.
In response, the industry is embracing a more intentional approach to aligning owner business and engineering goals during the earliest stages of project development. This front-end alignment requires business leaders to make critical decisions on capacity, future expansion, and the willingness to adopt new technologies before detailed engineering begins.
What was once viewed as a best practice is now becoming a non-negotiable standard for all major and even plant-level projects. The organizations that succeed in this new environment will be those that treat alignment not as an administrative step, but as a strategic advantage. One that ensures every engineering and project decision directly supports the company’s long-term business goals.
