Innovative Engineering Systems, Inc. and Electrical Systems and Instrumentation, Inc. Announce Merger

December 11, 2017 by Alyssa Wolfer Leave a Comment

Bakersfield, CA –Innovative Engineering Systems, Inc. (“IES Engineering” or “IES” or “the company”) and Electrical Systems and Instrumentation, Inc. (ESI) are pleased to announce that they will be merging their multi-state business and operations effective January 1, 2018.   The combined entity will operate as IES in California and continue to operate as ESI in the Permian Basin.

With broad based offerings in diverse industries, strong reputations for safety and quality, and facilities in key geographies to the industries they serve, the merger expands IES’ position as the premier resource for instrumentation, programming, control system and electrical construction services on the West Coast and in the Permian Basin.

Bob Riley, ESI President and CEO, remarked, “It is amazing the way our two organizations fit together geographically, by offering, and culture – like a completed puzzle on the table.  Each company brings talents and skills that truly compliment the capabilities of the other.  The merger of IES and ESI is an example of 1 + 1 = 3.”

“I have great respect for Bob Riley and the entire ESI team,” says David Wolfer, IES Engineering President and CEO.  “ESI brings an outstanding industry reputation of providing safe and quality service, and I am inspired by our shared values. Together, we are stronger vertically, providing more engineering and construction services to our clients, and stronger horizontally, with our diverse, non-overlapping client bases.  I am very excited about what our two companies can accomplish as one through our shared commitment to our employee family and clients.”

Expanded Services

By combining the talents and expertise of both firms, IES will now be able to increase the scope of offered services to do more for clients and for employees.  The expansion of IES’ programming and electrical construction services alongside turn-key engineering and panel fabrication offerings will allow the combined company to provide broad-based resources and leading technologies under one roof, making them a stronger and more capable full-service company.  The addition of overhead line construction and high voltage installations aim to foster enhanced customer confidence and increase the company’s market share, while making significant inroads into maintenance work.

Diversification

IES’ increased presence in the Texas and New Mexico regions will serve as a spring board to build upon an existing reputation of quality instrumentation and electrical offerings bringing these established services to non-oil clients across the United States. This merge also signals an even more significant investment by IES in food and beverage construction where they have tremendous project success in diverse regions with premier food and beverage clients.  The company will also continue to pursue broad-based engineering and construction offerings in renewable energy, specifically solar for commercial and industrial clients.
