We're Nationwide
With offices in 8 states, projects in more than 40, and staff nationwide, we’re poised to quickly mobilize for any project need.
We are organized to meet the needs of our clients. That means that everyone at Dudek is a leader in a project management, technical, work product delivery, or operational capacity. Often, we wear more than one of these hats. Individuals collaborate quickly without bureaucratic layers so we can be nimble problem solvers for your project.
Projects succeed through deep technical expertise and outstanding project management. People succeed through relationships. We see our clients as individuals we want to help succeed by:
- Listening to and understanding your project need
- Committing to collaboration and communication
- Keeping your best interests at the heart of every decision
- Being an easy and enjoyable partner to work with
Our culture is the foundation of who we are and how we work, and is shaped by these shared beliefs:
- People working in a trusting atmosphere rise to the occasion and perform better than with top-down management.
- Achievement is measured by cumulative contributions to client work, not by job title or org chart position.
- Entrepreneurial spirit is encouraged. Good ideas are funded. Success is rewarded.
- Diversity enhances our delivery. Our colleagues’ diverse and intersecting perspectives help us produce thoughtful and inclusive work.
- Employees make the best owners. Ownership opportunities are available to all full-time staff.
- We take our work seriously, not ourselves!
