About Corporación AICSA
Corporación AICSA is a Guatemalan firm based in Guatemala City providing consulting, design, engineering, construction and project delivery for local and international clients. Founded in 1975, it covers residential, commercial, corporate, industrial, institutional and infrastructure work, placing it as a multidisciplinary consultancy rather than a single-discipline specialist.
An integrated firm is worth considering when a project combines several engineering disciplines and needs coordinated delivery, because a single accountable party can align structure, building services and construction. Before hiring, ask for the structure of the assigned team, not just the corporate track record, and confirm who will be the day-to-day project manager.
It is also advisable to require a management plan with change control: every scope change should be recorded with its impact on cost and schedule. On large projects, that record is what prevents small design decisions from turning into cost overruns at the end of construction.
