As one of the largest system integrators in North America devoted to water and wastewater, and one of Transparency Market Research's Top 10 global water/wastewater management and operational control companies, Tesco Controls is distinctly qualified to design and build advanced control systems for the industry. We are a 100% employee-owned, CSIA®-certified, full-service company with 45+ years of experience in the design and implementation of control system solutions required to automate water treatment, distribution, and related processes.
Tesco's end-to-end, at-risk solutions ensure continuity and successful outcomes. Turn-key, vertically integrated solutions are developed in house, including system design, EI&C engineering, programming, custom fabrication, and field service, to ensure maximum communication, responsiveness, and quality control. This gives Tesco the ability to assume some schedule and process performance risk for design-build projects.
From greenfield water/wastewater projects to complex legacy migrations, we are dedicated to the design-build and collaborative delivery methodologies, which support our fully integrated approach to integration projects. Tesco is also a UL-rated manufacturer of custom enclosures and instrumentation, and an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for most major equipment suppliers, affording our clients solutions tailored to their needs, aesthetic, budget, and schedule.
