Project LifeCycle Process

ENGINEERING • CONSULTING • TECHNOLOGIESPROJECT AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT

“We’re not just design, build and good-bye. We’re there for as long as the client thinks we’re useful…”

Dr. Gerald G. Hatch

What is Project LifeCycle?• A project delivery methodology used

successfully by Hatch for more than 50 years to provide clients with innovative technology solutions combined with rigorous safety, quality, cost and schedule performance

• A gated, risk-managed process beginning with the Business Case of the Client, through project set-up, implementation and turnover to operations
