says Arbour. “The project manager acts as the
client’s representative to supervise the proj-
ect throughout all phases. He provides expert
level advices, while maintaining costs as low
as possible and safeguarding, within schedule,
quality of work execution.”
Groupe SCV’s success is firmly rooted in
Canadian projects with long term engagement
and relationships. Groupe SCV is recognized in
the industry as the top-reference among elec-
trical and mechanical integrators. Arbour says
it brings his team great pride to see the proj-
ects it has worked on thrive.
Arbour starts most sentences with “To be hon-
est with you”, which seems to be the work-
ing mantra of the entire group. Arbour says
Groupe SCV’s approach may not always be
the lowest bid upfront, but the value-adds of
the group’s turn-key solutions and global ap-
proach to project management pay off in the
long term.
