MES provides service directly to utility owners in the electrical transmission sector, as well as the oil and gas sector. MES works both as a prime contractor and subcontractor. The demand for these specialized services is rapidly growing due to increasingly stringent environmental regulations as well as the aging of infrastructure and the need for new capacity buildout. While these services represent a small fraction of a project's total cost, its work is critical due to the environmentally sensitive nature of the work and visible parts of the construction project it represents.
