Expert Precision Engineering for Safe, Reliable Power Infrastructure

We help move preliminary concepts into actionable projects through our comprehensive, end-to-end services that include system and site evaluations, feasibility studies, project scoping, estimating and schedule development. Using a flexible, multidisciplinary approach, we can serve as an owner’s engineer or a project consultant. In either role our goal is the same—to ensure your project meets all requirements and is completed on time and within budget. 

Our power system studies offer critical insights into the operations within substations, transmission, distribution and renewable energy systems as well as the electrical systems that support power generation and industrial facilities. Using advanced modeling tools and industry best practices, we offer a range of studies such as load flow, short-circuit, arc flash, harmonic, dynamic stability and contingency analyses. These detailed, accurate reports and recommendations help clients make data-driven decisions that enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve reliability.

From greenfield projects to upgrades of existing facilities, we offer detailed design engineering services for substations, overhead and underground transmission lines, and distribution systems. We approach the design process with quality and safety top of mind, strict adherence to operational and regulatory requirements and a practical balance of functionality and cost-efficiency. Comprehensive services include route selection, site layouts, tower and pole design, transformer placement, equipment specifications, and ground grid design. Additionally, we assist with IEC 61850 integration, ensuring seamless communication and interoperability for modern substation automation.

We offer advanced protection and control designs that can improve safety, system reliability, and reduce equipment damage and downtime. We offer real-time monitoring and control of electrical networks through coordination schemes and relay settings as well as the configuration of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, which includes communication protocols and data integration. Through our commissioning services, we perform rigorous testing and system validation to verify functionality and compliance with all specifications. 

We deliver tailored compliance solutions for electric utilities, leveraging expertise in federal regulations and industry standards. Our services include North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) gap analyses, maintenance reviews, and data audits. We support (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) FERC Order 881 compliance through ambient adjusted ratings for transmission lines and offer arc flash analysis and mitigation for NFPA 70E compliance. Additionally, we assist with IEC 61850 integration, ensuring seamless communication and interoperability for modern substation automation.
