Our Mission
The electric utility network is aging. Utility companies are experiencing an ever-increasing demand on their systems. Extreme weather, solar power as well as expanding the electric vehicle charging network in Canada are all causing stress to the systems as well as the operators and managers. With the already overloaded grid, the government has also implemented regulations which will require further demand on the system. To meet these challenges, utilities need to have a clear picture of their operating infrastructure including identifying potential improvements needed to their systems to keep up with the demand and continue to provide safe and reliable energy.
Our combined experience in the line trade, GIS and project management makes our team capable of understanding the unique needs of our customers. We can expertly assess their systems and provide them with the data they need to make educated and cost-effective decisions when it comes to maintenance and improvements.
We are always looking to expand our operations and add new services. In addition to looking at new pole testing techniques, we are also looking to start a fiber splicing division and training to pilot drones.
why we're different
Team
We care about our people. Their safety and well-being come first. Mental health and wellness are essential to everyone’s well-being which means that a safe and healthy work environment includes providing a psychologically safe workplace. We all contribute and rely on each other to successfully complete our projects safely and efficiently. Our team works hard to deliver excellent work on time and on budget.
No Titles
The ability to drive change is not tied to a title. Titles can buy you power in many organizations however having the ‘right’ title doesn’t mean a person will make better decisions. A title is a label someone has given you, whereas a role is what you contribute to the team and company.
Getting Rid of the Office
Collaborating on projects is easier than ever no matter where you are located. We have technologies in place to support remote work and with no formal office space, this broadens our horizons and offers opportunities abroad.
