WE WANT TO SHOW UP, HAVE OUR PLAN TIGHT AND ORGANIZED, HAVE THE RIGHT TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT FOR THE JOB, AND THEN GET TO WORK.


in, we were looking to modernize in our own way. I was interested in the big jobs. I’d seen what our competition was doing while working in the field, and I thought: we can do that.” Both brothers had come up in the business, spending their youth in the yard, summers doing whatever job they were assigned. By the time it was their turn to enter the family occupation, they were well aware of the legacy, but also cognizant that PSC had come this far by committing to core values (trust, honesty, dignity, and respect) and vision. “We love clients that make us better,” emphasized


Jim. “When Randy and I came in, we were already working with Honda and starting to enter into some of the longer-duration ‘shut-down’ type of projects. Randy saw where the gantries would be necessary to improve business and evolve the company yet again. I was bringing in more of the digitalization component through the front office and operational procedures— an additional evolution: straightening out the books, computerizing everything, developing formulas and templates. “So yes, we’ve changed this company, like our father and grandfather, but what hasn’t changed is the values. In terms of growth since then, we’ve gone from around twenty regular guys out in the field and four or five back at the office to an average of around seventy- five to one-twenty in the field on a daily basis— sometimes over two hundred. And now there’s roughly twenty-five non-field staff.” Randy added, “We were small at the time, and our thought was: why not start bidding on some of these big jobs?”


A Distinguishing Factor A lot can happen in over 20 years—7 of which Jim and Randy have officially been at the helm. PSC’s current list of services? In a word—comprehensive: Heavy Machinery Moving & Heavy Specialized Hauling / Industrial Rigging & Press Assembly / Crane Rental / Millwright Service, Precision Leveling & Conveyor Line Installation / Pre-Cast and Structural Steel Erection / Onsite Field Fabrication / Turnkey Machinery Installation / Engineered Lift Plans & Designs / Overhead Crane Erection / Plant Relocation & Warehousing/Equipment Storage / Power Generation Installation and Services / Industrial Plant Shutdown Maintenance.


Te list of industries is just as impressive: Specialized Transportation / Industrial and General For more information, visit www.pscind.com.


Construction Contracting / Freight Forwarders / Crane & Rigging / Millwright Services / Industrial Manufacturing / Oil & Gas Refineries / Power Generation / Electrical/Mechanical / Material Handling / Aggregate Processing / Metal Stamping / Machinery Building / Original Equipment Manufacturing (OEM) / Industrial Installation / Automotive. “Te press work is a strong area for us right now,”


said Jim. “We like the way it has to be planned out and executed. We’ve also surrounded ourselves with really smart people around here—we collaborate and work to come up with the right solution.” Randy noted, “Te gantries and the specialized hauling—with the Goldhoffers—is definitely something we brought to the table, as well as engineered lift plans and designs. Our industrial press installs are also now very large-scale. We’re really seeing a lot of traction in food & beverage, automotive, appliance manufacturing—installing and maintaining process equipment. Tere’s also a lot of opportunity as we expand our special projects group into the power- gen and petro-chem sectors.” PSC is especially busy between Michigan and Alabama. “Tat might be the sweet spot at the moment,” said Randy. “Tere’s just a ton of manufacturing, and we’re positioned right in the heart of it. But yes, we’re at the point where we can do a job anywhere in the country—and we currently see a fair share of work in Japan, as well, within their automotive sectors.” At the end of the day, the Sever brothers don’t question their growth, for a pretty simple reason. “We’re a company of our word; we stand behind what we do,” asserted Randy. “Tere’s certainly a legacy element to it—and the values—but there’s a distinguishing factor behind companies that always want to stick it to you, versus companies that are built on reputation and stand behind their word and work. To us, that means something. We want to work with companies that want to work with us—who respect the same values.”


Tat said, Randy still enjoys keeping a close eye on the horizon. “It’s exciting to think about that next piece of equipment that will revolutionize another era for our industry—and the opportunities it creates. What’s the next tool that we’ll put in our toolbox? What’s the next evolution?” y
