PRECONSTRUCTION
Whether you have a napkin with a stickman drawing, 100% construction documents, or a thought in your head driving into the office, let us help you fill in the holes or account for the holes already filled-in with design/budgeting assistance. Our understanding of applicable codes and best practices combined with our experience from having successfully performed almost 1,000 projects can help you stay on track and out of trouble.

WHAT

Emergency power systems, especially at mission-critical facilities, are nothing like the corner gas station. VITAL Fuel Systems understands the complexities and operational concerns of generator fuel oil systems and have proven they can deliver by their performance on many projects over many years.
JOE TRIPP
SENIOR ACCOUNT MANAGER
GREGORY POOLE POWER SYSTEMS
In Power Generation, the fuel system is one of the most important components. When VITAL Fuel Systems provides and installs the fuel system I know it will be done right because of their knowledge and expertise. The comfort level I have when they are on site doing the job is priceless.
CHRIS GRIFFITH
PROJECT MANAGER
CAROLINA CAT
Starting from a single paragraph in the RFP, VITAL Fuel Systems’ knowledge of fueling systems and ability to work with members of the design team allowed the final product to meet all demands from the US Army Corps of Engineers and our project schedule. VITAL Fuel Systems exceeded our expectations from buyout to commissioning.

HENSEL PHELPS CONSTRUCTION CO.
VITAL Fuel Systems mobilizes, does their work, de-mobilizes, and you never know they were on the job. No problems, no headaches, and everything works. How could you have a better sub than that?

COMPRESS PROJECT SCHEDULES, REDUCE COSTS & ENSURE GREATER PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY
We have in-house CAD capabilities and can provide design assistance to the owner’s engineer. Additionally, we can provide sealed engineered designs on design-build projects where we take the lead design role. At VITAL Fuel Systems, we speak BIM and are routinely employing Building Information Modeling to save time and money on more complex, fast-track mission-critical projects such as data centers to resolve constructability conflicts when they are the least expensive – before it’s installed and somebody has to tear it out and move it.
From the pre-design budget phase through final design, permitting, and construction, with our understanding of equipment and systems, applicable codes/regulations, and best installation practices, we can provide value-added solutions that compress project schedules, reduce costs, and ensure greater system performance and reliability for the owner.
BECAUSE SOMETIMES MONEY IS HARD TO COME BY
VALUE ENGINEERING
With owner’s budgets strained more than ever before, VITAL Fuel Systems can provide important value-engineering services that can lower project costs while maintaining design integrity. Whether the project is in the design narrative stage or post-bid, let us point you in the right direction if cost is a critical driver of the design or re-design.
OUR JOB ON BID DAY
Our job on bid day is to reliably protect you and help you be competitive by being clear about the scope and price and help you avoid gaps or duplications in your bid.
