Look for opportunities to position complementary services or expand existing engagements under the larger firm umbrella.

Global Reach Despite a Pittsburgh base and Houston presence, Rhodes Group markets itself as having global reach with experience across major industries. Leverage this to pursue cross-border or multi-site project work, especially with clients needing standardized claims consulting and dispute resolution across regions.

Construction Claims Core offerings include claims consulting, expert testimony, CPM scheduling, and 3D modeling, suggesting strong value in project risk management, schedule integrity, and dispute support. Target clients with complex mega-projects such as stadiums and LNG facilities that require robust claims and scheduling capabilities.

Mid-Sized Firm With 11-50 employees and annual revenue in the 10–25 million range, Rhodes Group sits between boutique and mid-sized firms. Identify growth opportunities through strategic partnerships, hybrid project teams, or expanding service lines to scale without compromising niche expertise.

Technology Stack Utilizes Deltek Vision and common productivity tools along with modeling and multimedia tech. Position upgrades or integrations (e.g., enhanced scheduling, BIM/3D modeling workflows, or data analytics) to improve project outcomes and differentiate in competitive RFPs against larger firms.
