Deal finalized for acquisition of Construct-X
In a significant move, PTAG, a leading project consulting firm, has completed the acquisition of Construct-X on June 30, 2025. This strategic merger reinforces both companies' commitment to shaping the future of project delivery.
Ted Blackmon, the former CEO of Construct-X, expresses excitement about bringing Construct-X's legacy and expertise into the PTAG ecosystem. Blackmon believes the collaboration will shape the future of Advanced Work Packaging (AWP), Lean, and digitally enabled project delivery, referred to as Advanced Project Delivery.
The acquisition significantly enhances Advanced Project Delivery and accelerates digital transformation in the capital project industry. Construct-X specializes in AWP and Lean Project Delivery, and its proven tools, methodologies, and expertise have been instrumental in AWP deployment for nearly 20 years.
The integration of Construct-X's tools, methods, and team with PTAG's Advanced Project Delivery platform is expected to further enhance service offerings. This integration will drive measurable improvements in project predictability, performance, and overall outcomes.
One key impact of the acquisition is the expansion of PTAG’s Advanced Project Delivery platform. With Construct-X’s nearly two decades of leadership in AWP, the collaboration enables more structured and scalable delivery models that improve field productivity and capital efficiency for owners, Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPCs), and contractors.
Acceleration of digital transformation and operational excellence is another significant impact. The combination of Construct-X’s digital tools with PTAG’s client-centric collaborative delivery approach sets new standards in the industry for advanced and lean project execution.
Fernando Espana, who now leads PTAG's global Advanced Project Delivery practice, emphasizes the importance of this milestone in PTAG's journey towards industry leadership. Espana, along with Ted Blackmon, who has joined PTAG’s Board and team as a Special Advisor, ensures strategic alignment and global scalability of best practices.
All Construct-X employees have transitioned to PTAG, ensuring seamless service continuity. The combined forces of PTAG and Construct-X aim to drive measurable improvements in predictability, performance, and project outcomes.
The shared vision between PTAG and Construct-X is to transform the way capital projects are delivered. This collaboration positions PTAG and Construct-X collectively to shape the future of AWP, Lean, and digitally enabled project delivery, effectively advancing the industry’s move toward more efficient, predictable, and technology-enabled capital project delivery.
- The integration of Construct-X's technology-driven AWP and Lean Project Delivery tools with PTAG's Advanced Project Delivery platform is poised to revolutionize finance and business operations within the capital project industry.
- This strategic alliance between PTAG and Construct-X, two leading players in the industry, is anticipated to redefine technology-enabled project delivery, fostering a shift towards more efficient, predictable, and financially stable capital project execution.
