With an aim to grow by strengthening our core capabilities and offering new services, EXP is pleased to announce the restructuring of the Building Science group in Central and Western Canada.
To meet current and future client needs, we have identified Sustainability and Commissioning as a discipline that requires a new direction and solid leadership to spearhead the expansion of this practice in Canada. That’s why our Earth and Environment and Buildings groups are reorganizing to capitalize on this opportunity with the following changes.
