The agricultural industry is rapidly expanding into industrial level capacity, while the land base on which farms are traditionally located are very poor. The efficient use of the land base have complex and unique problems, requiring innovative engineering solutions requiring a pragmatic approach.

Types of Clients
Over the years, we have established niche with contractors, particularly those that are under design-build or alternative delivery models (such as EPC, EPCM) or traditional bid-build models where some aspects of the work have been passed on to the contractor to retain appropriate designs. In these cases, the need for innovative solutions that are cost-effective are paramount as well as response timing.
In this category, which is by far our largest clientele, a niche has been established. The size of a typical client varies from medium sized contracting entities to large, multinational construction companies. Services range from simple trench excavation reviews, to complex support of excavation design and construction advice after providing assistance in traffic staging schemes to optimize construction sequences in larger projects.
Highway 99 Steveston Interchange, design of lock block walls and shotcrete anchor abutment supports,
Patullo Bridge Replacement project, general services contract which included pavement evaluations, utility support designs, pre-construction inspections, crane pad designs, excavation support and designs, temporary support of excavations, shotcrete wall design and construction support, MSE / Lock block walls and design, and many other assorted tasks. Under this project, over 3 years, we have completed over 150 assignments over varying scopes.
Farms
Commercial farming operations are a niche clientele with unique demands. Often situated in agricultural lands which are geotechnically some of the most challenging environments, commercial farming operations are optimizing land use resulting in larger structures on smaller footprints, requiring complex foundation solutions. Coupled with regulations which are unique to farming applications results in a complex solutions, for complex problems.
Our client base for farming has included operations from Burnaby, Pitt Meadows, Delta, Surrey, Abbotsford, and Chilliwack.
