D&Z Polymer & Fiber Project Successfully Completed Through Virtual Environment

Day & Zimmermann’s (D&Z) Engineering Group was recently selected by a long-standing client in the Polymers and Fibers field to provide Front End Engineering Design (FEED). Our team provided detailed design for the installation of new high capacity process equipment and new boilers in an existing Brownfield facility. Due to the pandemic, we used laser scanning and aerial/drone photography to limit site visits. Even in a virtual environment, our team was able to complete the project on schedule and under budget. The virtual project kickoff and virtual design reviews were also successfully held.
