Mace Consult Becomes Independent Company to Enhance Global Project Management and Delivery Standards

Mace Consult: A New Chapter in Project Management

Mace Consult has recently stepped into the spotlight as an independent entity following its successful carve-out from Mace Group and a significant majority investment from Goldman Sachs Alternatives. This transformation not only signifies a new beginning but also aims at refining its operational frameworks and enhancing service delivery across various infrastructure programs worldwide.

With over 5,500 highly skilled professionals distributed across six continents, Mace Consult has been a pivotal force in executing impactful infrastructure and capital projects. The firm collaborates with clients from inception through execution, ensuring that projects are completed on schedule, within budgets, and adhere to the outlined scope.

CEO Davendra Dabasia emphasized that this milestone represents a promising new chapter for the firm. "Our partnership with Goldman Sachs Alternatives provides us with the necessary capital and strategic direction to expand, particularly in North America. It also empowers us to invest in advanced digital ecosystems that bring about greater predictability, automation, and overall control in project scheduling and execution. We aim to establish new benchmarks for project and program delivery," he stated.

Mace Consult has a storied history of collaborating on some of the most significant infrastructure initiatives globally. Notably, it played a vital role in the London 2012 Olympic Games and is currently engaged in key projects like the UK’s New Hospital Programme, the Hudson Tunnel Project in New York, and the GO Expansion program in Toronto. Furthermore, major initiatives in Saudi Arabia, such as Diriyah and Qiddiya, underscore Mace's global outreach. In Asia, the firm has recently solidified its presence as a program management partner for MTR Corporation's new rail network and the Civil Engineering and Development Department’s Northern Metropolis program in Hong Kong.

Mace Consult’s portfolio boasts comprehensive services tailored to meet the needs of Fortune 500 companies across various sectors, including commercial, industrial, life sciences, and technology. Following a successful stretch of double-digit growth, the firm achieved nearly $1 billion in revenue in 2025. This new majority investment will allow for accelerated growth, with a focus on booming sectors such as infrastructure, clean energy, climate resilience, entertainment, advanced manufacturing, and digital connectivity.

Jose Barreto, a partner in Private Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, articulated the excitement surrounding this partnership. “The entrepreneurial culture at Mace Consult, combined with a client-centric approach and dedication to excellence, distinguishes it from its peers. We look forward to collaborating as they continue to create lasting value for clients and communities across the globe.”

Managing extensive infrastructure programs often entails intricate coordination among numerous organizations, with monumental financial stakes involved. Mace Consult addresses these challenges through four primary service categories: Strategic Advisory, Cost and Commercial Management, Program Management Office (PMO) and Planning, and Program and Project Management. This comprehensive service structure is designed to ensure effective governance and delivery frameworks, facilitating timely decision-making and proactive problem-solving.

As Mace Consult carves its niche as a standalone entity, it remains committed to prioritizing client interests, challenging conventional timelines, mitigating risks, and maintaining stakeholder accountability as a thoroughly integrated partner throughout the project lifecycle.

Goldman Sachs Alternatives, by investing in Mace, aims to fully leverage its global network and industry insights to build innovative businesses and accelerate growth, especially regarding value creation across its diverse portfolios, contributing to wider economic advancements.

In conclusion, Mace Consult stands ready to embrace this new journey, carrying forth its promise of precision and excellence in the realm of project management and infrastructure delivery, aiming for a future filled with groundbreaking achievements and sustained contributions to impactful worldwide projects.
