Responsible Construction

Build Forward is our vision, and our boots-on-the-ground approach is Responsible Construction.

Whether we are working on a Bid Specification (Bid Spec) project where drawings are 30/60/90% or a Design Assist project where we have a hand in developing a path forward, our goal is clear: Build Forward – We find innovative ways to improve the project’s sustainability, while keeping well within budget, and on schedule.

Responsible Construction means taking a methodological approach to our work, using three distinct phases.

Mechanical upgrades that included boilers, compressors, installation of bulk tanks and pneumatic valves for their ketchup processing was all completed with our highest level of quality workmanship and scheduling.

Guelph WWTP Generators

As the general contractor we completed the install of 2 new backup generators and tanks at the Guelph Wastewater Treatment Facility for the main office and Plant 4, within the city of Guelph, ON. One unit was a 1250kw diesel generator and the other was a 300kw diesel generator. Each generator required new concrete pads, bollards and platforms and all connections were made to the plants SCADA system.

Sutherland-Schultz commanded a repowering project at three of the hospitals within this network; McMaster University Medical Centre, Hamilton General Hospital and Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Centre. The project was to supply, install and the commissioning of thirteen (13) natural co-generation engines. As the work was being completed within three (3) operational hospitals extensive coordination and scheduling were required to avoid any interruption to hospital infrastructure and operations.

University of Waterloo – High Voltage Replacement

The University of Waterloo with an enrollment of over 42,000+ students annually is a public research university with a main campus in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. We have completed numerous projects within the University including the new High Voltage Vista Switch Feed and Substation Replacement which also included a new High Voltage feeder from outside to the new switchgear inside the Dana Porter Library.

Core States

Core States was a hydro approved peak shaving project at 4 facilities within the city of Guelph. It involved 5 – 7.5 mega watt peak shaving generators, new Vista switches for each site, new SEL protective relay systems and programming to connect to HONI and new electrical switchgear to tie into existing equipment at each site.
