Key Differentiators:

  • Specialized Experience: Our experience includes major projects and maintenance at nearly every refinery in the Pacific Northwest. With outstanding safety performance, comprehensive quality control, and best-in-class off-site manufacturing capability we provide you with confidence that the job will be done right.

  • Multi-Trade Self-Performance: We provide you with seamlessly coordinated construction services self-performed almost entirely with our in-house craft that include:
    • Boilermakers

    • Carpenters

    • Electricians

    • Ironworkers

    • Laborers

    • Millwrights

    • Plumber/Pipefitters

    • Operators

    • Sheet Metal Workers

  • Streamlined Project Delivery: Because of our self-performance breadth and the ability to act as a self-performing general contractor (GC) in the industrial sector, we are able to ensure streamlined communication, fewer handoffs, mitigate scope gaps, and provide you with budget and schedule certainty, all while eliminating double and triple markups that you would pay for with a traditional construction manager utilizing subcontractors.

  • Off-Site Manufacturing (OSM): We utilize our industry leading OSM capabilities to move as much of the work off the site as possible, racking, modularizing, prefabricating, and preassembling wherever possible. With over 350 qualified weld procedures, a weld reject rate of less than .054%, and in-house NDE and hydro testing, our spools and modules are fabricated to the highest possible quality standards. Our OSM capability provides you with a safer, more efficient, and higher quality project and a plant that is operational faster with fewer issues during start up and turnover.

  • Shutdown & Turnaround Coordination: We are experts at accomplishing major scopes of work under tight schedules and have a well-established reputation as the contractor you want handling your down or TAR. We understand that every second you aren’t producing is costing you money and we have the craft and experience to make sure that your facility is back up as quickly as possible.

  • Service & Preventative Maintenance: We don't stop at capex projects or major rebuilds, we also offer best-in-class service and preventative maintenance provided by some of the most experienced craft in the industry.
