Strategic Applications
Power Plants & Industrial Facilities
EPC contracts are widely applied in constructing complex industrial and power facilities where design, procurement, and construction phases must be tightly coordinated for turnkey delivery.
Infrastructure & Utilities
Roads, bridges, pipelines, and water treatment facilities often use EPC to ensure projects are delivered on schedule, within budget, and meeting quality standards.
Project Suitability Analysis
EPC is ideal for **greenfield projects** or technically complex projects with well-defined scope. The model transfers design and construction risk to the contractor while maintaining sponsor ownership.
Risk Considerations & Mitigation
Key risks include design errors, procurement delays, cost overruns, and schedule slippage. Mitigation relies on detailed specifications, fixed-price contracts, milestone-based payments, and performance guarantees.
