New Clients, Future Partners

Q: What added value does Plate bring to project management in the infrastructure sector?
A: Over its 47 years, Plate has been positioned as a project management leader, having managed over 10 million m2 of retail, industrial, corporate, and apartment constructions. There are only a few companies with our experience in Mexico, especially in the northern part of the country. Honesty, fairness and loyalty are three key cultural principles through which our clients distinguish our services and that have led to our success. Our experience brings a great deal of value to each project.
Q: How is your methodology different from that of other project management companies?
A: We build long-term business relationships based on confidence, focusing our efforts primarily on existing clients to guarantee their satisfaction. Our clients include Grupo Acosta Verde, a company we have continually collaborated with over 18 years in more than 34 shopping center projects. We have built such a strong relationship with this company, we have become its go-to project manager. We attribute our success to building these strong relationships and achieving client loyalty. We also work permanently with other national and international real estate firms and institutions such as United Technologies Company (UTC), Internacional de Inversiones, Universidad de Monterrey, BMW and many more. Our goal is to prove to our clients that we are the right partner to manage their projects, working to exceed expectations. In every new client, we see a future partner.
Q: How has Monterrey’s real estate sector evolved over the last decade and how is Plate seizing its opportunities?
A: Real estate firms have to reinforce municipal and state programs focused on the promotion of redensification of downtown areas and vicinities. Land prices in Monterrey are very high, so the use of new guidelines such as higher densities and fewer parking requirements helps real estate firms reduce costs and increase the profitability of their projects. As a project management company, we help our clients to visualize and understand the true potential of their land. We forecast significant growth in Nuevo Leon and other states. In Monterrey, we will continue looking at an increase of mixed-use vertical projects with better urban infrastructure and connectivity.
