In a bold move to expand its footprint, Kinley Construction has launched a brand-new Industrial Services Division. This new division is aimed at providing clients with around-the-clock support and maintenance for industrial facilities, ensuring smooth operations and minimizing downtime. It’s a strategic leap for Kinley, which is already known for its expertise in construction, particularly in fueling and energy projects.
The new division is not just an add-on to Kinley’s existing services—it’s a fully separate entity, designed to handle the unique demands of industrial services work. From emergency repairs to ongoing preventative maintenance, this team is ready to jump in whenever clients need them.
A Big Step Forward for Client Support
This move came from a clear need within the industry. “We saw that our clients had smaller, yet crucial, service needs that weren’t being fully addressed,” explained Lowell Schaper, Director of Operations for the new division. “By creating this standalone unit, we can respond faster and provide focused attention on these critical issues.”
Clients will now benefit from a more comprehensive range of services, including the maintenance and repair of piping, valves, pumps, and even electrical systems. Whether it’s a scheduled checkup or an emergency fix, Kinley’s new division promises to be there, making sure everything runs like clockwork.
The Secret Weapon: Embedded Crews
One of the standout features of the Industrial Services Division is its “embedded crews.” These teams will be placed directly at client facilities, allowing them to respond immediately to any problems that pop up. Mike Riggs, Chief Operating Officer, explained, “Our embedded crews offer a level of support that’s hard to beat. When an issue comes up, our people are already on-site, ready to tackle it.”
These crews don’t just fix problems; they’re also there to prevent them. By focusing on regular, preventative maintenance, Kinley aims to help clients avoid costly breakdowns and extend the lifespan of their systems.
Hitting the Ground Running
Though it’s a new venture, the Industrial Services Division has already hit some impressive milestones. “We’ve completed over 100 projects in just our first year,” said Schaper, adding that the division has also expanded its presence in key regions like Houston, Southern California, Nebraska, and beyond. This regional reach ensures Kinley can respond quickly, no matter where its clients are located.
Why It Matters for the Market
Kinley is setting itself apart with this move. By creating a specialized division that focuses solely on industrial services, they’re stepping up to meet a growing demand in the industry. Schaper emphasized that their team can handle a wide range of challenges, not just those tied to fuels. “If something breaks, we’ll figure out how to fix it. And we won’t stop until the client is back on track,” he said.
Kinley’s reputation speaks for itself. With over 130 years of history, they bring a wealth of experience and reliability to the table. “We’re not some fly-by-night operation. We’re here for the long haul, and our clients know they can count on us,” Schaper added.
