Ready Engineering

Lee and Susan Ready launched their Spruce Grove engineering firm in 1996 with three employees, a single client, and 750 square feet of office space. Now with 45 employees and offices across Western Canada and the United States, Ready Engineering is on the ground on six continents, providing worldwide support for their customers. 

Their Spruce Grove location had what was necessary to support their booming success, including a steady supply of local staff from NAIT and University of Alberta programs, close proximity to Alberta’s capital, and big city amenities. “Spruce Grove has what Ready Engineering needs for the future development of our business,” says Lee Ready, President of Ready Engineering. “As a family and a business, we are not interested in living in a big city, but we want all the amenities that go with big city living. Spruce Grove and the neighbouring areas offer all we need for our business and our family life.”

“Spruce Grove also offers better rates for office space than we would find in Edmonton,” adds Jordie Holton, Manager of Electrical Engineering. “We have expanded within our facility and have more room to grow.” That growth is evident as the company develops relationships within a growing number of industries. The company assists clients in biofuels, agri-food, chemicals and fibers, mining, oil and gas, pulp and paper, special waste management, and nuclear, fossil, and green power generation.

Advancing into emerging markets is key for the company, and niche consulting is what sets it apart. Cryptocurrency is the newest field where Ready Engineering is making its mark and adding value, by supporting clients with engineering design, energy and heat dissipation, and sourcing green energy to minimize environmental impact.   

Regardless of industry, Ready Engineering expertly addresses customer’s concerns related to power system designs, control system installations and upgrades, software verification and validation, and design, commissioning, and start-up support. Its unique and exceptional level of service has garnered an impressive collection of awards—the company has received the PSMJ Circle of Excellence Award seven times and the PSMJ Platinum Award as well, all of which demonstrate its position as one of the best run engineering firms in North America. Other awards include Consulting Engineers of Alberta Showcase Award of Excellence for both Software and International projects, Alberta CIBC Small Business Award of Distinction, and Business of the Year from the Spruce Grove Chamber of Commerce.
