Disciplines and Design Approach
Facility Engineering Services uses a systems based engineering approach to its design of Industrial and Agri-industrial processing facilities. This approach differs from the traditional single engineering discipline approach to design where each design discipline focuses on its own area of expertise. This approach is based on the classical Agricultural Engineering approach to design were the focus is on the interaction of the various design elements and how the system works in the end.
True to this approach our design services integrate aspects of each of the major disciplines including Process Engineering and Layout, Mechanical Engineering, Building and Structural Engineering, and Planning. Where required we supplement with our business partners to draw other disciplines into the project team.
To help our clients with project development we also offer budget estimating, project management and scheduling services to help them develop and manage their projects. As a professional services company we are able to offer unbiased design opinions for our clients.
