NESCO has evolved into a leading EPC solar contractor for ground mount projects and portfolios. Having installed more than 400 MW to date, our mission is to deliver projects on schedule while upholding the highest standards of safety and quality. NESCO has the capability to self-perform many of the scopes required for a full turnkey project. By self-performing the majority of the work, we reduce mark-ups and the risk of change orders or scheduling conflicts.
Our extensive experience and deep industry knowledge enable us to meet and exceed high standards in project and construction management. Our commitment to delivering projects on time, without compromising safety or quality, sets us apart as a leading solar EPC contractor. A goal for every project is to apply NESCO’s expertise to ensure satisfaction and profitability for every client.
Since 2011, NESCO has been providing it’s experience and expertise to the solar industry.
NESCO provides comprehensive EPC solar contractor services nationwide, including:
Safety, quality and efficiency is NESCO’s commitment to each and every client and employee. These operating principles are what make us successful and ensure every project exceeds our clients’ expectations.
At NESCO, we make safety our highest priority. We’ll never sacrifice safety for our other two operating principles (quality and efficiency). Our exceptional safety record is something we’re extremely proud of and take very seriously.
We realize that our employees are the most important asset of our company, and we’re committed to providing the safest working conditions possible for our team. We’ve developed several specialized training programs specifically tailored for NESCO operations that meet or exceed OSHA requirements. These programs are part of the commitment by NESCO management to create a safe work environment for our team.
NESCO has an extensive new hire onboarding process that provides highly detailed information regarding all safety protocol that must be adhered to. This information is consistently reinforced on an ongoing basis to ensure team members are always up to date with the latest best practices.
In addition, we have safety programs onsite consisting of comprehensive policies that address every aspect of the work being provided to ensure all team members adhere to industry best practices. These programs play an integral role in our ability to make sure all work is done properly and according to the highest levels of safety.
For every project, evaluating risk is our top priority. At NESCO, we do everything possible to mitigate risk from start to finish. This includes having third-party inspections at each job site to ensure our safety program is implemented according to NESCO’s strict standards. Working with third-party safety consultants provides a second set of eyes to make sure our safety best practices are always being followed by all team members.
Quality is the second pillar of our operating principles. We take the time to do everything right the first time. By making sure all work is done properly and safely, we’re able to ensure that our team delivers the exceptional quality work customers deserve.
Quality control is one of our top priorities. We have a rigorous checklist of criteria that determine if a project is ready to move forward. Since we do all scopes of work, we can control the quality more effectively by eliminating major subcontractors and making sure all work is completed according to NESCO’s rigorous quality standards.
NESCO’s quality philosophy involves focusing on defect prevention rather than defect detection. This is why quality planning is an integral part of our project management process, and it must be addressed during all phases of the project from initial concept through design, procurement, construction and startup. Upfront planning and development of the overall Project Quality Plan – and working through that plan throughout every phase of the job – minimizes errors. This meticulous process reduces the construction schedule and costs.
Efficiency is the third and final pillar of our operating principles. The more efficient we are, the better the results we can achieve on all projects. Our team is committed to exceeding expectations to ensure the project is completed according to your expected timeline.
At NESCO, we’ve implemented a variety of processes to ensure optimal levels of efficiency with every project:
