What your firm does now and its plans for the future? At DiPrete we try to understand our client’s business so we are able to walk in their shoes. We want to know the markets they work in, the people and businesses they deal with, and their overall mission. In our industry, being a competent engineer is a prerequisite; it’s the areas outside of engineering where we can make a difference. Our plans for the future include expanding our knowledgebase by learning more and more about client’s businesses and how we can create more value for them.
