Pricing construction is like a game of chess. In recent years, it has felt like that game was being held outside during a hurricane with powerful forces putting pressure on labor, pricing and material availability. To win at chess, players need a combination of skills: knowledge of the rules, strategy and calculated risk. The same rings true in today’s construction marketplace.

Whether you’re a parent diligently saving for your children’s education or a recent graduate saddled with student loans, mounting tuition costs hit home for many Americans.

Balfour Beatty was a member of the joint venture responsible for the contract to design, build, finance, operate, and maintain (DBFOM) the 36-mile Eagle Commuter Rail Network. The multi-billion dollar Eagle P3 Commuter Rail project is the country’s first public-private partnership transit project in the United States.

Balfour Beatty's Northwest team, along with other project members, take on a giant challenge and deliver!
