Infrastructure, Energy & Industrial Services businesses support the critical infrastructure and industries that drive progress. 

These businesses are subject to both macro- and micro-economic pressures and trends, but also face unique challenges in operating in distributed-workforce environments. Through industrial revolutions, energy transitions, digitization, and the future of technology and AI enablement, two things remain certain: services businesses are here to stay … and the environment will remain dynamic.

AlixPartners’ global team thrives in these conditions by applying a practical, operator-minded approach to your business and challenges. We get it because we have lived it—through experience personally owning P&Ls, serving in interim roles, and strategizing and executing transformational programs. Seeing the impact of that work is what drives us.  

We understand the difference between a theoretical opportunity and what it takes to realize value in businesses with distributed, entrepreneur-led field operations. We take an approach to strategy that is both market-backed and front-footed to ensure optionality in uncertain markets.  

We are here to support your highest-priority agenda items—or to help you set the agenda itself. Across M&A, growth strategy, cost optimization, digital transformation, risk, and restructuring, our professionals have industry-specific experience.
