Our Project Approach
Every material handling project begins with understanding your operational challenges and business objectives. We don't sell equipment, we engineer solutions that improve throughput, reduce labor costs, and support business growth. From conveyor systems to complete automated storage and retrieval systems, our solutions deliver measurable ROI for facilities throughout Connecticut and the Northeast.
Our process:
- Discovery: On-site assessment, material flow analysis, operational interviews
- Design: Conceptual layouts, equipment selection, ROI analysis, phasing options
- Engineering: Detailed design, structural calculations, controls architecture, code compliance
- Proposal: Complete scope of work, detailed pricing, project schedule, terms and conditions
- Execution: Procurement, fabrication, coordinated installation, quality control
- Commissioning: System testing, fine-tuning, operator training, documentation
- Support: Warranty service, preventive maintenance programs, emergency response
Project Coordination
We understand material handling projects occur in active facilities. Our project managers coordinate installation to minimize operational disruption. Weekend and off-shift work available. Phased installations allow continued operations during construction.
Coordination includes: Pre-installation surveys and measurements, equipment delivery scheduling, facility access and security requirements, safety plan development and OSHA compliance, utility shutdowns and reconnections, final inspection and sign-off, and as-built documentation.
Geographic Coverage
Headquartered in Cromwell, CT, we serve facilities across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic with regular project work spanning 12+ states from Maine to Virginia.
Our regional presence means rapid response for site visits, installations, and service calls. Local project management eliminates long-distance coordination delays. We understand regional building codes, permitting requirements, and union labor considerations.
Why Clients Choose EHS
With 37+ years in material handling, we've learned that successful projects require more than good equipment. They require engineering expertise, careful planning, skilled installation, and ongoing support. As a member of MHI (Material Handling Institute), we stay current with industry best practices and emerging technologies.
What sets us apart:
- Engineering staff with real-world operational experience
- In-house installation crews (not subcontracted)
- Local project management and direct communication
- Complete accountability from design through commissioning
- Maintenance and service support for equipment lifetime
- Financial stability and long-term business commitment
Request Project Consultation
Planning a material handling project? We provide free facility assessments and preliminary design concepts. No-obligation consultations help you understand options, budgets, and realistic timelines before committing to a project.
Contact us to discuss your upcoming project. We'll schedule an on-site visit, review your operational requirements, and develop a preliminary approach. Most consultations result in a written proposal within 2-3 weeks.
