We always strive to deliver legendary service; therefore, we are building a regional team of mechanical engineering and fitness-for-service experts who will help our clients extend the lifecycle of their existing assets and create safe operating environments. The new Katy, TX office is based upon feedback I received during my 2022 client visits and builds on the momentum generated from opening our West Coast office last year. I am excited about the possibilities that this local FFS team will bring to our clients and the E²G team.”  David A. Osage, President & CEO, E²G.
