Set up in 1989, Opti-Conseil inc. (OCI) has a wide industrial expertise. The firm works mainly on the level of thermal and mechanical processes. In great demand for its competence in energy conservation, OCI takes part in numerous energy-saving projects brought to the fore by Hydro-Québec, Gaz Métro and both government levels.

Besides feasibility studies and energy audits and balances, OCI has to its credit numerous modernization designs for a diversified clientele: pulp and paper, energy producers, aluminum smelters, sawmills, as well as chemical, pharmaceutical, agri-food and mining industries.

Concerned with the development of high-performance work tools, Opti-Conseil inc. differentiates itself from others by its three-dimensional design to which a plus value is added. Indeed, the computer models are transformed into process animations and industrial building virtual visits. The level of realism thus achieved is much appreciated for both construction and staff training purposes.

Moreover, another plus-value is offered to customers: Opti-Conseil inc. has obtained its ISO 9001:2000 certification in September 2007, applicable to engineering consulting services including design and training activities for institutional, municipal and industrial sectors.

OCI's team is made up of engineers working in the chemical, mechanical and computer fields. Technicians and draftsmen ensure technical support on the design and instrumentation & control levels. Other collaborators join the team according to the needs.
