President's Message - 12/2017 A Note From Dennis O'Neill
As 2017 draws to a close, everyone here at Beacon Consulting Group, Inc. would like to sincerely thank our many valued clients and partners in the Surety, Insurance, Financial, and Construction Consulting areas. This year, we have had much to be thankful for. We consulted on, helped manage, and helped turn around a wide range of Surety & Construction Consulting projects—from a cutting-edge multi-use university building (Rutgers CCB) to high-profile mass transit / rail projects (MBTA), to roadways & bridges, parks, public housing, schools, and residential and commercial high-rise buildings.
We also took on a number of other consulting assignments for financial institutions, insurance companies, and in our growing construction defects practice area. This year, we welcomed some highly talented new staff members. We are planning to further recruit and build our project teams in the weeks and months ahead to keep pace with our growing list of diverse assignments across the U.S.
Last Friday (12/8/17), Beacon Consulting Group held its annual meeting in Boston, MA. Meeting highlights included some great presentations and case histories covering Beacon's Projects from 2017 and a panel discussion with Surety Claims experts. It was a great opportunity for all of our professional team members to bond and share lessons learned, strategize about new projects, and learn about new project management solutions. The photo below shows some of Beacon's team members and guests enjoying an evening tour of Sam Adams Boston Brewery and R&D center—a highly recommended activity for craft beer lovers or any visitor to the Boston area who would like to learn about a great American business success story.
So, Happy Holidays & Best Wishes to All for a successful, healthy and prosperous New Year! We look forward to seeing many of our friends, partners, and clients next month in Washington D.C. at the ABA Fidelity & Surety Committee Midwinter Conference. Make sure to register if you have not already! (ABA Site / Registration Page).
