You'll find TGE Industrial Services is relatively unique in the industrial services sector in that it has large company capabilities in a small, nimble company package. The company leverages the large EPC experience of its management team.
"We look at our business in a slightly different way than most of our competition," said Dave Maggio, CEO of TGE. "Our focus is to deliver not only the industrial construction services our customers need for projects where they use a smaller, specialty services company but also the value-added components they have come to expect from large EPC companies."
These value-adds include a "solutions- oriented" approach to every assignment or project. This means bringing a creative perspective to addressing the typical problems encountere d in major plant expansions, capital projects, and maintenance and repair assignments. TGE's service offerings reflect its "solutions" focus.
"We focus on mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation and tank services that complement each other," stated Larry Laqua, vice president of field operations for TGE. "Our teams are composed of some of the best in the business who take great pride in their work."
"Our foundation is our people," explained Rilene Burgess, COO of TGE. "Our approach to recruiting skilled craftspeople for projects is to hire experienced teams who have worked together for some time. This yields higher productivity and better-quality work. For the customer , that means we get more work accomplished, get it done quicker and save them money."
TGE has developed a reputation of being able to step into situations that are less than ideal and get projects back on track.
"Our customers have come to expect that if they have a problem project, they can call us in and we can generally get things back on track quickly," said Tina Dean, chief marketing officer of TGE.
TGE has worked side-by-side with some of the largest EPC companies in the world, helping them overcome challenges on projects that require a perspective and approach like TGE's.
"Some of our best customers or referrals are other large EPC companies," Dean said. "Of course, we are proud of our relationships with the large owners as well, like DowDuPont, Koch, Marathon, etc."
TGE provides customers with continuous progress reporting. The emphasis on information for the company's customers and management, including field superintendents and project managers, means they can adjust rapidly to developments that can positively or negatively impact a project. This means if there is a better way, TGE can get to it quicker.
"We understand where we are with each project almost on a minute-by-minute basis," said Marilyn Beaty, vice president of project controls and professional services for TGE. "It's what we learned to do years ago and the only way we want to work."
TGE's approach also carries over to its safety experience.
"We have historically been a very safe contractor with exceptional experience levels, which is important not just to our customers but also to us," Maggio stated. "Our project and organization discipline helps us tremendously in this area. We feel the moral obligation to send people home to their families in the same shape as when they showed up at the site. That is an obligation we take as our No. 1 priority."
