About Vincent Palrose

With nearly two decades in engineering and technical project management, I bring value-added expertise in Project Management ranging from Architectural Design Management to Construction Management and Facilities Engineering. I am an exceptional Project Manager who consistently delivers projects within the set boundaries of scope, cost, schedule and quality. I have extensive experience managing the planning, design, acquisition and construction and maintenance of all types of facilities. I\'ve worked with multinational teams leading the execution of construction projects around the world in very austere conditions. And, I have been recognized with several awards during my career for delivering millions of dollars of expeditionary construction. Colleagues know me as an integrous highly organized engineer who is not only adept at developing creative solutions to complex problems but wired for leadership. When I’m not on the job, I like reading African American literature, Military Leadership and Romance. I also enjoy working out. I started my own Project Management consultancy, thirty6 consulting, in 2016 where I satisfy a specific niche in the construction industry helping small general contractors manage large and/or complex projects. I can be reached either through this profile, by email at v••••••@thirty6.com or via my website at If you’d like to learn more about how my skills can help your company, please reach out.
