EBA uses an internal program called "Career Builder" to provide ongoing in-house career training to employees as their career at EBA develops. There are five levels of Career Builder at EBA. The first is entry-level development which focusses on understanding the consulting practice, including: client service, quality issues and technical seminars. The second level focusses on leading a team and involves project management training through our external resource PSMJ. The third level focusses on leading multiple projects and includes leadership and performance management training. The fourth level focusses on leading business units and includes business development, billing/collection systems and performance goals. The fifth and final level focusses on leading the organization and involves strategic thinking, financial management and advanced communications. The Career Builder philosophy involves two of EBA's core values. One of the core values is "We believe in the individual". This is EBA's commitment to employees to provide the training and opportunities needed for them to develop their careers at EBA. The other core value is "We each take ownership for what we do". This is the employee's commitment to EBA to accept personal responsibility for acquiring new skills and improving themselves through life-long learning.
Diversification of Skills
Look at the list of skill sets represented by the people who work at EBA. This diversification of skills not only allows employees to work with fellow employees in their fields of specialization but also provides the opportunity to interact with fellow employees from a wide variety of other fields of specialization on teams providing total solutions to clients' needs. EBA is a total solutions firm where we bring people together from all across the firm, with all the right skill sets and backgrounds, in order to build teams to provide our clients with a complete package.
Market Focus
EBA has been successful in a transformation over many years from being largely a specialty services firm working as a subconsultant for other consulting firms to today being a full-service firm largely working directly for owners. This strategic thrust continues today where we believe that it is very important for EBA to get to know the owner, their business and their industries. This knowledge allows EBA to be more innovative and to add more value on projects. We also find that this approach is much more satisfying for employees where they can be part of a team providing innovative solutions to an owner rather than providing a standalone service with little knowledge of the final product being delivered to the client.
Driven By Innovation
"We innovate". Innovation has always been a critical success factor for EBA. From the early use of nuclear densometers for measuring soil density in the 1970s to the development of ground penetrating radar for road and bridge applications in the 1980s, EBA has historically invested heavily in research and development. More recently, we have made further commitment to innovation by having a full-time Director of Research, and by sponsoring research and development across the company.
EBA is an ideas-driven organization. Our growth comes from the development of good ideas. In the future as in the past, we will rely on the ability of our staff to create and deliver better solutions for our clients.
