Why Henkels & McCoy, Inc.

Well Established Firm
    When you put your trust in Henkels & McCoy, you are enlisting the expertise of an organization that has been exceeding the expectations of customers since 1923.  In an era of mergers and acquisitions, we offer the peace of mind, confidence, and reliability that come with experience and a commitment to our own future.

Significant Resources
    With approximately 7,000 pieces of modern equipment, our ability to provide total solutions is unsurpassed.  Henkels & McCoy employees perform most of our work, assuring customers that the highest standards are uniformly applied.
    Notable among our stock are the Rock Drill, which has revolutionized modern pole line excavation; the multi-dimensional Rock Saw; and our patented Railroad Mounted Cable Plow, which has transformed right-of-way cable installation.
    Our resources are strategically deployed at over 80 fully functional division, area, and project offices throughout the country.  This strategy assures quick, cost-efficient mobilization.  While your priorities may change over the life of a project, we retain our capacity to deliver on time and on budget.  Our financial strength allows us to manage even the largest of projects.

Emergency Response
    Our ability to respond to great challenges has received widespread recognition.  Whether executing the air transport of staff and vehicles to Hawaii following Hurricane Iniki or helping to restore services to Florida and Louisiana in the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew, we take the necessary action.  One of our most meaningful honors was acknowledgement by the State of Maine with a Joint Convention Resolution "Recognizing the Extraordinary Efforts to Alleviate Damage and Suffering Caused by the Severe Ice Storm of January 1998."

Safety
    The culture of safety that exists at Henkels & McCoy is based on training, inspection and discipline.  We track safety down to the job level on a per-project and per-superintendent basis from Project Safety Pre-Plan to Post-Job Safety Review.  A Corporate Safety Department upholds our safety standards.  In addition, we deploy safety managers and inspectors at each division location.
    Our CIRCLE 4 SAFETY registered service mark was copyrighted in 1989.  It serves as a daily reminder to our employees that safety consciousness begins with them and extends to the task, the job site, and beyond.  Our commitment to a drug-free workplace is unequivocal.
    Our safety initiatives have received awards from the Pipe Line Contractors Association, National Utility Contractors Association, Mechanical Contractors Association of America, Texas Safety Association, and Liberty Mutual Insurance Company.  With safety ratings consistently better than industry standards, we offer customers an environment conducive to high morale, maximum productivity, and reduced risk.

Performance/Customer Service
    We believe that quality performance is a result of systematic planning, execution, coordination, and verification.  This conviction inspired the creation of our Quality Assurance initiatives.  These efforts substantiate our pledge to perform all of our work in a safe manner and to meet or exceed the quality expectations of our customers.
    The presence of a Corporate Performance Department further evidences our investment in excellence.  Unique in our lines of business, this unit oversees the productivity, quality, and customer relations aspects of all Henkels & McCoy projects.  We realize our goals through customer surveys, performance appraisals, and the development of metrics designed to stimulate Peak Performance.  Our systematic, measurable approach to quality means that every customer should expect nothing less than best-in-class service from every employee on every project.

Innovation
    Our image as innovators and problem solvers is well established.  We have always responded when unique situations have demanded creativity.  As a result, we have been awarded numerous patents for our efforts.  One of the best examples is our Railroad Mounted Cable Plow.  First patented in 1970, this device has revolutionized long-distance cable laying, turning feet per day into miles per day.  We have continued to evolve this tool with the recent commissioning of two next-generation plows.
    We know that yesterday's solutions often represent today's dilemmas.  Therefore, we view every project as a fresh opportunity for continuous improvement.  This results in maximum cost effectiveness, efficiency, and productivity for our customers.
