Client Testimonials
Ken Swift
Project Manager - System Protection, Oncor Electric Delivery
“Oncor expressed that the team’s engineering services to support Oncor’s transmission system and accommodate IPP interconnections are critical to Oncor. The team’s support also helps reduce the workload of their System Protection team.”
Travis Goucher
Transmission Engineering Manager, Western Farmers Electric Cooperative (WFEC)
“The team has worked with WFEC on numerous projects and is critical to the operations of the WFEC transmission system. During their recent work for the Paoli Switch Station, Torlan was very flexible with dealing with the ever-changing construction schedule for this project. We appreciate the support provided by the team.”
Sarah Baird
Electrical Engineer, Oklahoma Gas & Electric (OG&E)
“Thank you for the excellent work done at SM3. The project was completed with quality in mind and also on schedule. You have raised the standard for relay projects, thank you for your effort and hard work! Let’s all catch up to discuss any lessons learned whenever you can catch a breath.”
Chris Walsh
Operations-Engineering/Warehouse Manager, Wise Electric Cooperative, Inc.
“Wise EC has partnered with REI since June 2020, primarily in the area of joint use, and has been more than satisfied with their knowledge, attention to detail, and willingness to fight through common use issues. They have always gone the extra mile to ensure accurate information is relayed to the attaching companies and are always available when questions arise. Their field crews are attentive as well, and their work is efficient and timely. Wise EC would highly recommend REI to anyone looking to outsource Joint Use activity, especially now and in the near future as Joint Use becomes more common with the initiatives set forth for internet access to more rural areas.”
Bart Bauer
Assistant General Manager, Cherokee County Electric Cooperative Association
“REI’s turn-key joint use management solution has helped with our attachment needs at Cherokee County Electric Cooperative. Additionally, assistance with staking and management of TxDOT projects has allowed us to focus on the day-to-day tasks. REI is part of our co-op family.”
