(1)
(1) LSTK: Lump-sum turnkey
10
“The volatility and unreasonable risk
associated with lump-sum, turnkey
projects have been the root cause of the
Company’s past performance issues.”
- Ian L. Edwards
› The current LSTK contracting model within the industry is
broken as it places undue risk on the company
› Many of SNC-Lavalin’s industry peers have also exited
LSTK
› By exiting this contracting model and running off the LSTK
project backlog as efficiently as possible, SNC-Lavalin will
be able to significantly reduce risk while optimizing free
cash flow generation from the higher performance parts of
the business
› The world is moving to a digitized, technology
environment. Given our innovative solutions, SNC-Lavalin
is well positioned to capture the benefits of this change.
Why exit the LSTK model?
