Question:
My company is in
the early stages of developing a scope for an upcoming project; Can CPE get
involved this early in the process, or should we call you when everything is
set in stone?
Answer:
Good question, and
here’s why; If CPE is involved on the front-end of
scope development, the client has the benefit of the added expertise
provided. The client has a “second set
of eyes”, along with valuable field experience to assist in the early stage of
the scope. Knowing what it takes to get
the job done is an attribute CPE is very proud of. A large portion of CPE’s
engineering is done in the field where it really counts, not just in the
office. We rely on tried and true field
knowledge in our designs and installations.
Question:
I’m interested in
sending a resume to CPE. Should I just
e-mail it or just mail it? Also, are
positions direct or on a contract basis?
Answer:
First, e-mail is
good and convenient, but please send your resume and
cover letter via mail. When we receive
it, we’ll create a permanent file for reference. Second, CPE allows the option of going direct
with the benefits, or contract without them.
The only employees listed on our website are direct. Short term positions will generally be
considered contract. BTW, CPE occasionally
creates intern positions, helpful to the student or new chemical engineer.

course. Our computers and plotting
equipment are compatible with most any Windows software. We also subscribe to many engineering
journals to keep us abreast of new technology.
