For 40 years, the original centre acted as a cornerstone for the Maillardville neighbourhood. As time passed, the aging facility could no longer support the needs of a growing community. The City of Coquitlam decided it was time for a new community centre to replace the previous neighbourhood house.

Completed in the Fall of 2022, the new 22,000 square foot facility doubles the size of the previous community centre and features the City’s first ever dedicated gym. The centre features modern amenities include a teaching kitchen, a combined youth and seniors lounge, a kid-centric space, a studio fitness space, and more. These new diverse offerings and programs will allow the facility to serve more families.

We performed the electrical, structured cabling, and AV scope of work for this project. This included installing the electrical distribution equipment, lighting and lighting control, inverters and AV equipment. Through the planning prepared by our PPS team, and thorough coordination on site, we were able to foresee potential obstacles and plan accordingly to deliver a successful project.

With completion of the new Patient Care Tower in 2022, Interior Health has started working on Phase 2 of the Royal Inland Hospital modernization project. With the goal to continue improving access to healthcare in the region, this phase will involve extensive renovations to expand the emergency department and completing enhancements to the pediatric and post-anesthetic recovery departments, as well as the morgue.

To minimize disruption to ongoing operations at the hospital, our teams are completing construction in phases. As construction management partners, we are delivering a full scope of integrated electrical and technology solutions including electrical distribution, lighting, fire alarm, security, structured cabling, and healthcare technology.

Hospitals require seamless systems integration and our teams will be completing the installation of various systems including access control, CCTV, nurse call, panic, real-time location, public address, wireless access point, and distributed antenna system.

Victoria International Airport supports over 1.7 million passengers per year, and after identifying opportunities to serve those passengers better, they decided to proceed with the electric vehicle charging project. This project gives drivers a complementary quick charge when picking up passengers from the airport, modernizing the airport’s offerings and better serving their visitors. 

Our team was brought in and completed the following: new kiosk feeders 3c #2AWG installed within existing ducts; installation of a new concrete pad for a new 600:120/208V 3Ø 75kVA transformer and 400 Amp panel board kiosk; a scan and x-ray of the asphalt in the proposed trenching routes to the EV chargers; installation of six Sun Country EV40 level 2 charging stations and pedestals; and seismic engineering schedules S-B & S-C for the transformer kiosk and EV chargers.

Looking to modernize, Fraser Regional Correctional Centre (FRCC) in Maple Ridge commissioned our team to install EV charging stations at their facility–which was built in 1990.

As the general contractor, we collaborated with several sub-trades (civil, coring, etc.) and coordinated the required permits and security clearances to break ground at the facility. We also assisted in the electric vehicle (EV) charging station design alterations based on usage site condition requirements before the project began.

To complete the installation, our team: verified capacity in distribution (using existing metering) for three new load-sharing FLO Core+ EV charging units; routed three new 2P40A circuits via new underground conduit; installed two underground concrete vaults; routed and installed a lighting circuit to new lighting bollards; routed conduit and installed FLO network gateway; and verified the lighting control integration (with existing controls) and commissioned six charging heads with FRCC and FLO.

The Joseph & Rosalie Segal Family Health Centre (JRSFHC) is a new, eight-storey mental health and addictions facility on the Vancouver General Hospital site. Bringing various services under one roof, including inpatient and outpatient care, outreach programs, and addiction services, the facility provides a safer, healthier environment for patients and healthcare professionals. Key features of the hospital include 100 private patient rooms, each with its own ensuite washroom; dedicated family and visitor space; access to outdoor space with secure rooftop gardens for patient gardening; a new public park; exercise facilities; and quiet places on each floor for reading and meditating.

We worked directly with the general contractor on this project to assist with the electrical design and solve multiple challenges which included: working through scope and design changes within the original schedule, logistical difficulties when making deliveries, reduced ceiling space for services, and creating acoustical separation between rooms.

Our team also provided electrical and technology solutions, including electrical distribution, emergency power systems, lighting and lighting control, fire alarm, clock system, structured cabling and communications, distributed antenna system, audiovisual, and security solutions like access control, video surveillance, and real-time locating systems.

Recognizing the need for better access to healthcare services in the growing region of White Rock and South Surrey, the government announced the Peace Arch Hospital Expansion project. This expansion added 26 new single-patient treatment spaces, five new surgical suites to replace three existing operating rooms, a dedicated mental health and substance abuse waiting and treatment area, a child and family-friendly treatment area, a new Medical Device Reprocessing Department expanded and relocated closer to surgical suites.

Our team provided electrical and technology solutions, including electrical demolition, electrical distribution, lighting, fire alarm, security, structured cabling, communications, and audio-visual work. This included five operating rooms and 50 single-patient treatment spaces.

The District of Squamish required the development of a new post-disaster Firehall and Emergency Operations Centre. Moving the Fire Rescue headquarters, Emergency Operations Centre, and IT Server Room out of the floodplain and into a post-disaster building was critical for effective emergency response. Now completed, first responders work in a building that meets all seismic and occupational health and safety standards.

We provided design-assist services to the construction team. Our scope included all electrical work, exterior and interior lighting, a digital sub-metering system, emergency power, network systems, a fire alarm system, a public address system, and security access control and intrusion alarms.
