Robert McNamara addresses the challenges facing companies executing large capital projects in a dynamic global environment.
For engineering contractors, risk is increasing as global projects continue to grow in size and complexity.
In this changing business environment, many contractors are creating joint ventures to execute projects, due to regulatory requirements or the need to carry out multiple projects.
McNamara, with nearly 20 years of executive and project management experience, is a board member of the US/China Business Council, a board member for a US and Japanese semiconductor equipment manufacturer and has served as chairman of the Construction Industry Institute's Technology Impact Task Force.
He is a graduate of Brown University.

Serving as the youngest commanding officer in the US Navy Pacific Fleet at age 36, Abrashoff transformed the USS Benfold into one of the best-performing ships in the Navy.
During his distinguished US Navy career, Abrashoff served in sea command as well as senior administrative roles, including tours as military assistant to the Secretary of Defense and in the Bureau of Naval Personnel.
Abrashoff is a 1982 graduate of the US Naval Academy at Annapolis.
