High-quality, on-time and
on-budget engineering solutions

We are a multi-disciplined engineering consulting firm dedicated to ensuring that buildings function efficiently - over the short and long term – while working within each client's budgets, timetables, and aesthetic visions.

We are problem-solvers, relentlessly dedicated to delivering cost effective solutions and exceptional service.

Engineered
for impact

In 2023, Crossey Engineering announced the merger with Salas O’Brien, an employee-owned engineering and technology firm. With more than 2,000 employee-owners operating from locations across North America, together we provide a full range of engineering and technical consulting services for government and private sector clients. 

Combining our skills and expertise means we can make an even more significant impact as innovation and technology leaders. Crossey keeps everything that has made the company successful while creating valuable opportunities to serve our clients better.

Leaders in innovation
and technology

We continually explore new ideas and technologies to drive innovation and enhance the value we deliver. We leverage our expertise to maximize the potential of emerging technologies, methods, and research and provide progressive engineering designs to our clients.

We are industry leaders in the BIM/Revit software, mastering integrated 3D Mechanical and Electrical data-rich models since 2008.

Our Approach

Whether we are providing analysis, design or post-construction support, we work closely with clients by:
Facilitating discussions between all key stakeholders so that everyone comes to a common understanding of the critical design issues and timetables.
Dedicating an experienced team to projects, including Partners and Senior Designers, to develop and apply practical and cost-effective solutions.
Engaging design team members from project start to finish, ensuring key targets and goals identified during design are consistently achieved.
Leveraging our expertise from previous projects by sharing knowledge amongst our project managers and fostering collaboration within the team.
Ensuring the Project Manager is fully accessible to address any concerns efficiently.
Ensuring the necessary resources are coordinated to meet project schedules (i.e. Fast-Track, Multiple Tenders, Pre-ordering).
