Pyramid Engineering

Executive Summary 
Pyramid Engineering is a firm specializing in mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire
protection. We provide engineering, design and consulting services on government,
educational, health care and commercial facilities, and through subcontracting with
architects working on such facilities. The firm  provides engineering services using
technologically superior processes, providing greater value for clients and enhanced
design and construction.

The target clients are architectural firms. The targeted work is segmented into five
categories: educational, health care, commercial and government facilities, and
contractors. Pyramid’s competitive edge will be our knowledge of digital-based design
resources. Superior customer service will also be a point of firm differentiation.
Implementation of a quality control and assurance program will also provide a focus for
production.

Pyramid Engineering, P.C. was created as a professional corporation chartered in

Pennsylvania.   The company is privately owned by the four founding partners: John
Lavoie, Tom Heasley, John Solarczyk and Eric Haugh, all licensed engineers, with a
combined 90 years of experience in their fields.

Year 1 sales are expected to exceed $350,000 and increase to in excess of $400,000
by the end of Year 2. The current year will mark the first year of profitability with
expected profits rising significantly by the end of Year 3.

The most significant challenges ahead include expanding the client base, and ultimately
positioning the firm to have a presence in a larger global market.

This business plan outlines the objective, focus, and implementation of this firm. We are
seeking an additional $26,000 of short-term borrowing to maintain our cash flow over
the next year as we become profitable.
