President's Message, December 2023
It's hard to believe that 2023 is almost done! I'd like to say a big Thank You to all of our clients who put their trust in Beacon this year and to all of our incredible staff members who have worked so hard to make this year a successful one for our company.
For Beacon Consulting Group, 2023 was a special year. Not only did we celebrate our 20th Anniversary, but we also had one of our busiest years yet, added new staff members, and worked on interesting construction consulting assignments across the U.S. Since our inception in 2003, Beacon has strived to be a leader in the U.S. Construction Consulting field. We have done this by hiring and developing the best possible staff, building repeatable systems for managing and turning around construction projects, and offering a focused set of valuable construction-related consulting services.

President's Message, November 2023
I hope your Fall is going well. Please check out this month's Beacon E-news for updates on our projects, staff, and general construction news, including a staff profile of Simon Gallagher who joined our team in January of 2023. Another interesting item in this month's newsletter is an article about the incredible "Sphere" arena which opened in Las Vegas recently (with U2 performing the inaugural concert on Sept. 29th). The Sphere is an amazing feat of architecture, construction engineering, and multi-media technology. Not only is it the largest spherical structure in the world, but it also features the largest high-definition LED screen (more than 4 acres in size).

President's Message, August 2023
I hope you have been having a great summer! Once again, the summer seems to have flown by. It's already "back to school" time, with many college students returning to school in the past two weeks, including my two oldest kids. My oldest daughter is a senior at Northeastern University this year and our second daughter has started her sophomore year at Syracuse University. I've always liked this time of year—maybe because I can still feel the excitement of heading back to school and the new experiences that come with that.
Here at Beacon, we are "life-long learners" because there is always something new to learn in our industry, whether it's a new construction process, new technologies or software, or emerging best practices for managing a project. For this reason, our team is actively involved in a variety of professional organizations to keep up to date on the latest trends and technologies.
This summer, our team has been busy managing construction consulting assignments across the U.S. However, all work and no play isn't healthy (especially in the summer)! In July, I had the pleasure of traveling to Ireland with good friends and family members to participate in a charity event - The 41st Annual Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle. I would like to say a big Thank You to everyone who traveled all the way to County Kerry, Ireland to participate in this great event and/or cheer on the riders. Please click here for more info and photos from that event.
