Peña Alcántara Consultants, Inc. is a consulting firm specializing in the use of information technology and construction management techniques for the efficient development of infrastructure projects Peña Alcántara's mission is twofold: 1) to develop and apply information technologies for efficient use of construction management techniques, and 2) to maximize the return from investments in those technologies and techniques. Peña Alcántara combines research and development experience with professional experience. Our consultants understand that some clients require short term solutions with high pay-offs, and that other clients require long term solutions involving integrated analysis of current practices, future trends and future needs. Peña Alcántara consultants concentrate on the discovery, analysis and development of new technologies and methods that improve current construction management practices. We develop self-evaluating systems that use continuous feedback. We are committed to the marriage of technology and techniques to solve a problem. We identify the dynamic aspects of the development process in order to apply the proper methodology and tools. The dynamic nature of construction projects results in numerous, changing factors, which in turn produce surprising or unanticipated revisions to the original plan. These changes have to be managed in an efficient manner to minimize negative impacts (Change Management). We specialize in change management to augment traditional construction tools for scheduling and estimating. We approach change management by combining traditional change order analysis with innovative mechanisms for forecasting, controlling and minimizing the impacts of changes. Access to these techniques and tools is made possible by professional experience and ties with research universities.
