Portfolio

CSI has established a reputation as one of Southern California's leading specialty electrical and instrumentation (E&I) contractors serving the process industry. CSI specializes in projects performed in operating and often hazardous process environments, installing and modifying plant electrical, control system and instrumentation infrastructure. Facility engineers and managers require "first time right" craftsmanship and expert technical assistance to assure that the work is performed without process disruption. Over the last fifteen years CSI has completed numerous projects of this type including control system replacements commissioned on line. Far from requiring a premium for this expertise, CSI strives to be a competitively priced contract solution for process industry E&I work, and will assume turnkey responsibility by virtue of their relationship with various Southern California engineering firms. CSI utilizes computer based project management, job status and scheduling.
