Onsite painting and testing. Experienced with Doble, Megger, Vanguard, Omicron and Hubble test instruments. We are also a one stop substation construction maintenance company.

Over see Jobs with material, Utility isolations, ESA line up, and Man power scheduling. Help with Man power training and updating skill set. More of a labor force buffer to help the guys with time off, training and keeping the work and time off ratio even as possible. Make sure all documentation comes in from the field and relevant info on jobs that we need to quote. In the field maintenance and testing when needed. Help with the emergency call out system.
