This years’ conference brought together industry leaders, designers, engineers, planners, and innovators from across the country to explore emerging technologies, including AI, and share best practices in transportation.
Hatim Elnueri shares that he had a great experience representing PMA, alongside Dennis Lucey, Kathy Gorman, and Mohamed Elmusharaf at Booth #95, right by the entrance. The team had the opportunity to reconnect with familiar faces and introduce PMA’s capabilities to new contacts, many of whom were especially interested in our expertise in project controls, scheduling, estimating, risk management, and our work in climate change, NetZero, and resiliency management.

“Since this was our second year at the conference, we approached it differently. We prepared everything ahead of time, and thanks to Gianna DiGravio, NE Marketing Coordinator, we had everything we needed. We lucked out with a prime booth location right by the entrance, which made a big difference. We connected with new clients interested in PMA’s services and secured two new opportunities with existing clients.”
—Hatim Elnueri, Senior Director at PMA Consultants
