Duncan is how to adapt to a changing, and
growing industry. “The Manitoban Con-
struction industry has seen an upward slope
in the past decade, and with the recent Pro-
vincial Government commitment of more
than $5 billion in infrastructure spending in
the next five years, there is no sign of this
slowing down,” says Korell. Learning how to
manage this continuing growth and change
has been an exciting challenge in its own,
and one that Korell has been quite success-
ful at. By adding skilled staff in a range of
disciplines, Barnes & Duncan has become a “one
stop shop” for land development work. “Many of
our clients enjoy the fact that we have the abil-
ity and skill set to offer an all-encompassing so-
lution to their projects. Our legal survey depart-
ment can complete all of the subdivision design
and legal survey work including help with zoning
issues, while our engineering department is busy
designing the roads, sewers, and land drainage
for a development.” An added value for the cli-
ent comes from the firm’s project management
services. Efficiency in performance is guaranteed
through ease of managing data in one location,
rather than clients having to deal with several
consultants.
