Women Building Futures Update

April 2023

Partnership continues to help women enter trade professions

After completing a successful training program last year that resulted in WorleyCord hiring nine pipefitters, we are continuing our partnership with Women Building Futures (WBF).

WorleyCord became an Employer of Choice with WBF in November 2022, after completing an assessment of our internal diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices. Becoming an employer of choice allows us to hire future WBF graduates, attract diverse talent, build sustainable community impact and showcase our commitment to diversity.

We are planning our next program in partnership with WBF to train an additional 12 apprentice pipefitters beginning in July 2023. Students will receive three weeks of in-class training before joining us at our Edmonton Module Yard for a week of hands-on training at the end of their program. Once training is complete, the apprentices will mobilize to our project sites mid-August 2023.

If you know someone interested in becoming a pipefitter, direct them to apply on the Women Building Futures website. The July class will be posted soon.

WorleyCord shining bright in solar

February 2023

WorleyCord is crrently leading nine solar projects in a growing market

Solar projects are a new market for WorleyCord, having started this work in 2022. And we aren’t letting grass grow, so to speak, as we have nine solar plant projects in the works for three customers.

On one project, in particular, our scope is full EPC delivery, and we are in the process of executing the detailed engineering design. The other eight projects are in the pre-permit stage with WorleyCord working on the requirements for the AESO and AUC permits, which will help position us to be the EPC contractor on the plants.

The project timelines vary, and all are expected to be in construction between spring 2024 and the end of 2025.
 

A team effort to power Alberta

WorleyCord isn’t alone in executing this work. We are collaborating with numerous industry-leading teams throughout Worley – including Advisian, Canada West, US East, London and Madrid – making this a truly global effort.

Together, these projects have about 750 megawatts of combined capacity. That’s enough to power around 200,000 typical homes in Alberta.

We are also looking at some options that include an “agrovoltaic” solution. If you read that term and think, “They are just making up words now.” You are not entirely wrong.

Agrovoltaic is a creative industry mashup to describe using the land around and under the solar panels for other agricultural purposes, such as crop production or livestock grazing. This is a creative way to increase the sustainability of the projects we execute. Plus, livestock grazing seems like an economical and easy way to keep the grass mowed!
 

Transferrable skills and global expertise


The renewable sector is growing in Alberta, and WorleyCord is strategically positioning ourselves in the renewable space as part of our drive toward sustainability. 

We have initially focused on the solar market as our existing skill set is readily transferrable to solar plant construction, making it a soft landing point for our construction teams. Coupled with our global technical expertise, we are quickly becoming a significant player in the growing Alberta solar market.

In other words, more solar projects are coming.

One customer, as an example of the opportunities ahead, is planning their investment in gigawatts and is intending to sole source that work to WorleyCord based on our performance with them.

As we expand into other energy transition market opportunities, we will demonstrate to our people and our customers that we have transferrable skills and global technical expertise to be a reliable and smart partner for their energy transition projects.

Building a good night's sleep

February 2023

It turns out that supporting the local community doesn’t just help us sleep better at night – it helps the community get a good night’s sleep, too.

WorleyCord partnered with Women Building Futures to construct beds with Sleep in Heavenly Peace – a local organization that provides a new bed, mattress and bedding to children who need them. We used the Edmonton training space of Women Building Futures and the help of their current Journeywoman Start program participants to construct the beds on January 6.

Our donation helped to purchase the material, mattresses and bedding for 15 twin-sized beds. And knowing that 15 more children will have a place to lay their heads ought to help us all rest a little easier at night, too.

Cord receives TC Energy's first inaugural CEO Safety Leadership Award

June 2019
In May 2018, Cord began work fabricating and constructing a receipt meter station for TC Energy. Our team, led by Project Manager, Devin Sandor, and Construction Manager; Paul Paschinski, and Electrical Superintendent, Dylan Blais, completed the project in September 2018 on time and incident free.

Based on our team’s tremendous safety performance on this project, on March 22, 2019, we proudly received TC Energy's inaugural CEO Safety Leadership Award in the Contractor category.

Brad Van de Veen, President, Greenfield Construction, Modulization and Fabrication (pictured right) and Devin Sandor, Project Manager (pictured left), accepted the award on behalf of the team.

In a congratulatory letter from TC Energy, President and CEO Russ Girling (pictured center), writes, “In this inaugural year of the awards, there were dozens of nominations for the selection committee to consider. With safety as our number one value, merely having your name put forward by your peers is a testament to your exemplary dedication. In this worthy group of nominees, your efforts were deemed especially noteworthy and deserving of recognition… You are a role model for safety leadership and it is people like you who keep us all believing zero is real. Thank you for living the safety value.”

We received two separate nominations for this award, which stated: 

“Cord has an outstanding safety culture starting from the top of the company. I feel that the success of the company is the regular presence of management and the safety team in the field working alongside the foremen and laborers creating a constant and effective path of communication. Management takes suggestions from the workers daily on how to make the job site safer and implements their ideas into the daily activities. WPC has been able to maintain the same crew for multiple projects; this consistency has made it possible to build a solid safety culture within the team that buys into the safety values of both Cord and the client company. When new workers join the crew, the employees quickly make them feel as though they are part of the team and mentor the new worker to ensure they are following safe work practices. More importantly they create an atmosphere where new workers feel empowered and comfortable to ask questions.

…I would recommend Cord for future work with TC Energy and it would be a pleasure to work with them on another project.”

“Throughout the course of construction Cord was challenged with numerous unfavorable working conditions. With each change in dynamic, the team was quick to identify any hazards associated and implement an effective remedial action. A key component to Cord’s safety success is their ability to communicate amongst each other. Positive interactions between crews helped solidify relationships, cultivate safe work behavior and maintain overall site moral. Having continuous group involvement towards safety has encouraged new worker mentoring, while simultaneously keeping the more experienced employees engaged in the safety culture. Working with such an approachable, receptive group eliminated the feeling of apprehension in the event a safety intervention was required. Workers did not hesitate to return the favor if an unsafe act or condition was observed. Everyone involved with the project worked collaboratively to achieve a safe and incident free workplace.”

Congratulations to everyone who worked hard on the successful completion of this project. This award is for all of you! Your commitment to safety is second to none. Thank you for everything you do.

WorleyParsonsCord helps brings virtual reality pilot project to Red Deer College

February 2017
Thanks to a partnership between Red Deer College, Montana First Nation and WorleyParsonsCord, on  February 2, 2017, Red Deer College launched the Virtual Reality and Co-operative Trades – The Next Generation Program. The program offers Aboriginal students the opportunity to develop the skills and experience needed for careers in welding. The program is funded in part by the Government of Canada’s Flexibility and Innovation in Apprenticeship Technical Training (FIATT) program.

The program is separated into two groups of 25 students; the first group began their training in October 2016. “It’s awesome. Everyday just get up ready, go to class and use the virtual welders. It’s good hands-on skills that it teaches you,” said Eric Crier, a welding student from the Montana First Nation.

WorleyParsonsCord is the industry partner of the virtual reality welding program, and, starting this month, we will be providing work placement opportunities for three of the program’s first group of students.

“The partnership and support from WorleyParsonsCord is valuable to us and sincerely appreciated,” wrote Michael Donlevy, Vice President, Enterprise and Community Relations at Red Deer College. “We are very confident in the potential for success of our students in their upcoming work placements, including those who will be working on WorleyParsonsCord sites. The next group has now started their training as well and the demand for openings is encouraging – with truly remarkable numbers!”

 “The Program’s innovative approach to apprenticeship training could strongly influence the future of apprenticeship training in Canada. WorleyParsonsCord is proud to be a partner in this leading industry pilot program,” stated Kristie Schroeder, HR Director, WorleyParsonsCord.  “We look forward to continuing our long standing relationship with Red Deer College, building new connections with the Montana First Nation and most importantly seeing the students successful in their welding careers.”

Edmonton module yard steps up for Stollery Week

August 2016
Through the generosity of our employees, our Edmonton Module Yard team donated $25,000 to the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation during this year’s Stollery Week. Pat Lavin, director of modules, made the donation live on The Bear’s radio show.

This donation will pay for one of 10 non-invasive breathing machines for babies at the Stollery. This type of respiratory support uses nasal prongs or a mask to help babies breathe, preventing the need for intubation in many cases. These machines will help moms to start breastfeeding earlier, allow both parents skin-to-skin contact without worrying about dislodging a breathing tube, and reduce the risk of infection and the development of chronic lung disease.

Over the past ten years, our mod yard team has raised a total of $120,000 for the much loved children’s charity. We couldn’t be more proud of our crew - way to go team!  

Edmonton module yard use their skills to support local children’s charity

July 2016

WorleyParsonsCord’s Edmonton module yard are longtime supporters of The Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation. Each year they host fundraising events to raise vital funds for the local organization. This year, Pat Lavin, module yard director had something different in mind, he wanted the yard’s team to use their talent to build something monumental for the much-loved children’s charity.

“About two years ago we asked Stollery President & CEO Mike House if there was something we could build for the Stollery,” Pat recalled. “After some consideration, he told us they would really like a float that they could use as a promotional tool for events across Alberta.” At last year’s annual Stollery Children’s Foundation Radiothon, on behalf of WorleyParsonsCord Pat committed to building a Stollery Float. 

The WorleyParsonsCord Edmonton module yard team quickly began working with the Stollery on the concept and design while contacting suppliers for support. Myshak, City Lumber and  Norpoint all stepped up to help out too.

The float made its maiden voyage at the Edmonton K-days parade on July 22, 2016.
