PFI Project Consultants Canada

Since 1975, Pathfinder, LLC has provided the worldwide Process Industry with project management consulting, customized project management-related training and project professionals. In the late 1990s, Pathfinder directed its attention to supporting Canadian projects in a similar capacity through its Canadian affiliate, PFI Project Consultants Canada, ULC (PFI).

We rely on our totally independent, owner-oriented, full coverage project management expertise, which has enabled us to deal with the complexities of small to large-scale project execution challenges throughout Canada and Worldwide.
