Frequently Asked Questions
KED and Bluestone have a history of collaboration that goes back decades. Over the years, we have collaborated on internal project standards as well as external client-facing projects. Through these opportunities, we found that our teams work quite well together and that we share similar values. Both firms also had a goal of better serving our clients with a larger and more geographically diverse team. With all of these things in alignment, merging the two firms just made sense.
Absolutely not. All of our existing team members remain in place and focused on your project.
All existing project teams remain in place. The only change you may experience may be additional team members joining your project teams in order to help meet aggressive schedules or to bring in specialty expertise, when needed. This is one of the benefits of joining forces – we have deeper bench of talent to staff our projects.
Yes, we do. In addition to the depth of bench that comes from joining forces, KEDbluestone has also been actively hiring. We now have a team of over 60 employees that is equipped to take on larger and more complex projects than ever before.
