WSP|PB’S ACQUISITION STRATEGY SHOWS NO SIGNS OF SLOWING, BUT CULTURAL FIT IS IMPERATIVE

摘要

Fresh on the heels of the mega-deal acquisition of Parsons-Brinckerhoff (PB) in late 2014, Canadian based WSP reiterated and expanded an ambitious strategic plan for growth then immediately set about implementation with seven acquisitions in 2015. Because the PB acquisition surpassed previous strategic growth goals, a revised plan for 2015-2018 raised the bar, targeting 45,000 employees and $6 billion (CAD) net revenues, with $1.3 billion from acquisitions, and 5% annual organic growth.
