Large construction projects bring together owners, designers, contractors, and workers whose responsibilities intersect throughout delivery. Keeping those responsibilities aligned involves decisions about budgets, schedules, quality, and safety. How those decisions are handled can carry consequences for the people doing the work and the communities surrounding it.
Dana Wells, CEO of EPC Consultants, believes that broader responsibility should remain part of project leadership. His approach to owner advocacy and oversight draws on a career that began in ironworking and later moved into management and consulting. Through EPC, he aims to bring the lessons of that experience into how projects are planned, reviewed, and delivered.
