DALLAS, TX — Partner Engineering and Science Inc. (Partner) announces that Ken Sliter has joined the firm as Director of Client Development - Capital Programs. In this role, Sliter will support the continued growth of Partner's owners' representation and capital programs practice, leveraging his experience managing large-scale construction and facilities programs for national retail and restaurant portfolios.

Sliter brings more than 25 years of experience spanning capital program management, business development, and general contracting, with expertise in multi-site capital improvement programs, operational leadership, and client relationship management. Throughout his career, he has partnered with Fortune 500 retailers, restaurant chains, and commercial operators to execute complex, portfolio-wide capex projects, delivering scalable solutions that align operational performance with long-term business objectives.

"We are excited to welcome Ken to Partner," said Bob Geiger, Chief Revenue Officer at Partner. "He brings a strong mix of operational experience, client relationship expertise, and leadership that fits well with what we're building at Partner."

Based in Dallas, Texas, Sliter has led geographically dispersed teams managing thousands of projects annually across all 50 states and Puerto Rico. His experience includes oversight of national remodel, maintenance, and refresh programs involving store painting, restroom renovations, HVAC replacements, fire safety systems, lighting upgrades, flooring improvements, and operational refresh initiatives in active retail environments.

Over the course of his career, Sliter has managed large-scale programs for major retailers, restaurant chains, automotive service providers, travel center operators, and convenience store brands nationwide. His leadership experience includes directing teams of more than 20 project managers while overseeing portfolios totaling thousands of projects and hundreds of millions of dollars in cumulative investment.

"The opportunities to grow something and the culture here at Partner really stood out to me," Sliter said. "This was a chance to be part of something meaningful, help build it, and give back at the same time. The timing of everything just felt right, and I didn't want to miss out."
