Podcast

April 29, 2022

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (“IIJA” or the “Infrastructure Bill”), a $1.2 trillion investment in our nation’s infrastructure and competitiveness, provides significant opportunities for businesses within the professional services sector.

How will this increased activity impact professional services firms? What do professional services firms need to do to prepare for the influx in opportunities?

Listen to Scott Duda, Leader of Cherry Bekaert’s Professional Services Industry and Nita Sanger, a Director in the Firm’s Digital Advisory practice as they talk about how the Infrastructure Bill will impact the professional services industry and what companies need to do to position themselves for growth. Topics covered in this episode include:

  • How the increase in activity will impact different subsectors within the professional services sector
  • Areas you should examine to take advantage of increased demand and grow your business, including go-to-market, products and services offered, and how you operate as a business

As your company looks to prepare for the increase in opportunities, now is the time to revisit your people, processes, and technology to ensure you are giving your people the opportunity to be the most efficient and effective that they can be to take advantage of this once-in-a generation investment and maximize your full growth potential.

To determine actions needed to optimize your business to take advantage of the Infrastructure Bill funding, we recommend your organization take a more holistic approach and conduct a “design-thinking” session facilitated by our team of strategists, technologists and analysts. Your journey will be unique, and we are here to guide you forward.
