Buffalo Inspection Services (BIS), one of Canada’s largest independent providers of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), has announced a strategic partnership with Enoch Construction LTD. (ECL), marking the beginning of a long-term business relationship.
Enoch Cree Nation, located just west of Edmonton on Highway 60, is a vibrant community deeply connected to its cultural roots. With a history dating back to the Treaty of September 25, 1877, Enoch Cree Nation is a proud member of the Confederacy of Treaty Six and home to over 2,500 band members who maintain a strong connection to their land and cultural heritage.
Buffalo Inspection Services brings over forty years of experience providing comprehensive NDT services across Western Canada. BIS supports a wide range of sectors including upstream, pipeline, midstream, and downstream operations with certified and experienced NDT professionals. The company’s extensive capabilities and geographic reach position it well to meet the NDT requirements of new construction, integrity, and shutdown projects.
Ross Hutchison, President of Buffalo Inspection Services, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership: “We are thrilled to announce our partnership with Enoch Cree Nation. Buffalo recognizes that the Indigenous economy plays a critical role in building resilient communities and this joint venture provides many opportunities at the Nation level. Buffalo is committed to collaborating with Indigenous communities in the areas in which we operate, and our main objective is to work in collaboration with ECL to support sustainable growth, business development, and educational and career opportunities for the people of Enoch Cree Nation.”
This partnership underscores Buffalo’s commitment to fostering sustainable growth and development within Indigenous communities. By aligning with Enoch Construction LTD., BIS aims to contribute to the economic resilience of Enoch Cree Nation while delivering high-quality NDT services.
