We work in a modest office space, keep a low carbon footprint, are located in rural
North Dakota, and we have corresponding low overhead and low hourly billing rates
for professional engineering and design.
"I have recommended the MDC team and I have worked hand and hand with them in support of my structural
engineering practice since they opened their doors in 2003. Project types include: fatigued foundry crane
rails, marine elevators, concrete marine anchor systems, civil site plans, miscellaneous buildings including
forensics, and specialty steel design. MDC is very good at analysis, CAD, and steel design. Over the years
I have always been able to count on MDC for sound judgment and very practical solutions. " D.M.
"We have used MDC for several years on large and small automated machinery projects ranging from basic structural design,
stress analysis for optimization, through power transmission and mechanical systems design. They have also
helped with hydraulics, mechanical systems design, and machine controls. MDC has been invaluable in discovering
better ways to accomplish our design goals. With a wide network of engineering contacts, MDC delivers solutions
based on technical expertise and excellence.
We were introduced to MDC by a colleague on a design-and-build project that had been botched by another engineer.
MDC developed a great design that left the customer smiling and played a critical role in salvaging an important
customer relationship.
MDC always maintains strict standards of professional excellence, but they
are also very easy to work with. Their careful attention to customer needs
makes working with them a pleasure. They deliver cost-effective solutions
to automated machinery problems." D.H.
"I, and others in my company, have worked with MDC off and on since they started in 2003. MDC worked for some time in the late 2000’s exclusively with us, helping out when we had more projects than we could handle, and we needed machine design engineering, CAD, and controls design resources. They do analysis reports for us, handle the re-design of older projects, and have taken on the complete design of some mobile mining equipment for us. Their work is always reliable, they meet deadlines, and do what they say they will do. The suggestions and advice MDC make to us are very valuable, showing a knowledge of what works and what doesn’t, that comes from experience in the field." T.W.
