Bill Tryon Joins Partner Engineering and Science

TORRANCE, CA—Commercial real estate risk management expert Bill Tryon has joined Partner Engineering and Science as director of strategic development, based in the firm’s Torrance, CA, headquarters. In this new roll, Tryon will help the firm to expand its environmental, engineering and construction risk management initiatives.

“Partner has a passion for the due diligence business and for industry improvement that is a natural fit with my approach to the industry,” Tryon tells GlobeSt.com about his leap to join the firm, noting that Partner gives him a platform to continue his work. “Since 1990, I have worked to develop and modify methods of risk management in the construction and environmental arenas in a way that makes sense for the commercial real estate industry. As a SVP at Wells Fargo, I witnessed wide variations in the risk tolerance of borrowers and scope of work performed by consultants. I have consulted with lenders and governmental agencies and worked through groups like the Environmental Bankers Association and ASTM to promote consistency and true consulting, and to encourage a thoughtful approach to due diligence. My position as director of strategic development at Partner will enable me to focus on these efforts full time, which is a truly unique and exciting position to be in,” he explains.
