Engineering & Design

At Progressive Design, we provide solutions for complex situations customized to our client’s needs. We successfully execute challenging projects others shy away from.

We begin a project with our client’s end goals in mind. We understand the Complete Project Lifecycle from FEL / Gate Process, Initiation & Conception through Start-up & Commissioning into Steady State Operations, Upgrades & Modifications through Decommissioning & Disposal. Defining the Scope, understanding the Schedule, and working within the Budget is paramount to the success of a project.

We set the standard for Engineering excellence!
