“Norwest Engineering has our highest recommendation, and we consider our choice to work with them among the best decisions we have ever made.”

Luke Marin, Lead Chemist, Director of R&D

AGOSTYX

Norwest Engineering can be a one-stop solution for your project. We carry many specialties in-house; however, we pride ourselves on having the flexibility to carry out any piece of your project through trusted subconsultants and subcontractors. We have a strict vetting process of third-party service providers, only using trusted partners or client-recommended subs. Norwest takes full responsibility of any subcontractor we bring onto your project to ensure you receive the same quality of service as if it were being provided by our own employees.

DISCIPLINE OVERVIEW

Norwest boasts a diversely experienced staff of engineers, designers, and drafters, each specializing in their own discipline while cross-training in others. The group ranges from energetic, young team members to well-seasoned veterans, many of whom have worked in various industries throughout their careers. On staff, we have people with experience in vessel design and fabrication, process engineering, facility management, electrical and controls design, and geotechnical engineering; which is beneficial when managing and interacting with subcontractors, fabricators, operators, and our clients.

SERVICES WE PROVIDE

Multi-Discipline Detailed Engineering Services

Civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical and controls engineering, to be exact. Additionally, we have engineers with previous vessel engineering, process engineering, geotechnical engineering, power generation, plant management, and programming experience, which benefit our projects when managing subcontractors, fabricators, and operators.

FEED Studies & Cost Estimating

Front End Engineering Design (FEED) studies and cost estimating is where Norwest can offer some of our best value. Early project involvement is typically managed by our most senior project managers, department heads, and ownership. Their start-to-finish project experience allows them to ask questions that ensure your project’s uncertainties are identified and you maximize the project’s chance for success.

Construction Management

Norwest utilizes our own people for construction management. This limits us in the size and frequency of construction management projects we take on; however, if the right person is available for you, we trust them to hold contractors accountable, catch issues early, and save money for your projects in the long run.

Permitting Services

Norwest's experience in various industries across the US has given us the foresight to locate and understand potential permitting hurdles. We add value to your projects by considering the permit process early and identifying available alternatives or strategies that may help push your designs toward real-world construction. 

Inspections & Facility Assessments

During asset acquisition evaluations, troubleshooting and debottlenecking existing processes, and API 653 tank inspections, Norwest’s foresight and facility expertise help create professional opinions of your facility's operations that you can trust. Our involvement with owners and operations alike allows our team to provide sound judgment, diplomacy, and thorough analyses of your assets.

Procurement & Expediting Services

Norwest provides procurement support by any means dictated by our clients. We routinely develop request for quote (RFQ) packages and lead/support bid walks and bid evaluations. Additionally, we have taken full responsibility of procuring major equipment for our clients, if it benefits schedule and/or budget.

Surveying & Site Investigation

Norwest strives to keep abreast of new technology available to your facilities. Whether your project requires traditional surveying, 3D laser scanning, bathymetric surveys, geotechnical investigations, or drone video inspections, Norwest is skilled at weighing costs/benefits to ensure the solution you choose best fits your intended outcome.
