HELPING COMPANIES
MAKE GROWTH DECISIONS
AUSTIN CONSULTING advises companies on location strategy, site selection, incentives and due diligence for new facilities and expansion projects. We are the site location services division of The Austin Company, a design-build firm operating throughout North America. Our team is supported by in-house subject matter experts in key market segments including food and beverage, pharmaceutical and biotech, industrial manufacturing, commercial buildings, aerospace and defense, process industries, and utility plant support. Smart site selection decisions can pay dividends for years to come, while poor decisions can be painful and weaken a company’s position in the competitive market. We bring a strategic and detailed approach to projects, not one motivated by a real estate transaction or value of negotiated incentives. We are hyper-focused on helping you achieve the best possible result throughout the entire site selection process. Austin embraces complex and challenging projects and works with companies to mitigate risk by identifying issues sooner rather than later in the process.
