market liquid propane and Rangeland is
aiding this by venturing into projects that
convert propane to polypropylene. Future
plans also include the incorporation of on-
site construction inspection services and
cost estimation and control. “As clients
become more sensitive to cost, we’re of-
fering cost management from engineering
through to start-up,” Daye said.
A trend that Daye has observed in Alberta
is the increased competitiveness at the
commercial level. As a result, Rangeland is
addressing its internal methodologies and
processes to come up with more efficient
and optimized ways of delivering its prod-
ucts. Streamlining will allow Rangeland to
reduce costs for their clients.The company
is also busy marketing. “You have to turn
around and market hard and beat the other
guy to the mark on any of the project work
that is out there,” Daye said.
Furthermore, with work opportunities
being reduced in Alberta, Rangeland is
very actively pursuing clients in the U.S.,
Mexico and West Africa — something the
company would not have been doing three
years ago.
“We were so busy here that work came to
us unsolicited. It’s a whole different world
today, but we are adapting,” Daye said.
