Building Electrical Technician-Designer

CIMA+ receives three Awards of Excellence at the 2026 Canadian Consulting Engineering Awards. TORONTO, October 16, 2026 - CIMA+, one of Canada's largest private consulting engineering firms, has received three Awards of Excellence at the 2026 Canadian Consulting Engineering Awards (CCE Awards), which recognize projects that demonstrate innovation, technical expertise and meaningful impact on communities across Canada. Presented during the awards gala held on October 15, the distinctions recognize CIMA+'s contributions to three projects: * MILQ: Ecological Diagnosis of Lakes Using Bioindicators * Hertel-New York Underground Transmission Line * Réseau express métropolitain (REM) - North Shore Segment Together, these projects reflect the breadth of CIMA+'s expertise and its ability to bring innovative approaches to complex challenges in environmental science, energy infrastructure and public transit. MILQ: Ecological Diagnosis of Lakes Using Bioindicators. Developed by CIMA+ in collaboration with Université Laval in Quebec, the MILQ method uses diatoms, a form of microscopic algae, as bioindicators to assess the ecological health of lakes and reconstruct their evolution over time. Applied to Saint-Mathieu Lake and Little Saint-Mathieu Lake, the method provided a clearer understanding of the causes behind recurring water-quality issues. The analysis showed that the deterioration of Little Saint-Mathieu Lake was primarily linked to phosphorus accumulated in its sediments over time, rather than inputs from the larger lake. By bringing an approach traditionally associated with scientific research into engineering practice, MILQ provides decision-makers with a more precise understanding of lake eutrophication. This helps target restoration efforts, avoid unnecessary interventions and establish scientifically supported objectives for improving water quality. Hertel-New York Underground Transmission Line. The 400-kV Hertel-New York underground transmission line is a major infrastructure project supporting North America's energy transition. This 603 km interconnection will deliver up to 1,250 MW of Quebec hydropower to New York City, equivalent to approximately 25% of the city's electricity needs. The project stands out for its fully underground and underwater design - a first in North America - which required the development of custom solutions for the installation, connection and monitoring of very-high-capacity cables. By replacing a portion of fossil-fuel-based electricity generation in New York with hydropower, the project is expected to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately four million tonnes of CO[2] annually. Réseau express métropolitain (REM) - North Shore Segment. Commissioned in November 2025, the Deux-Montagnes branch, which terminates in the municipality of Deux-Montagnes, Quebec, added 14 stations to the REM network in a highly complex environment, requiring integration with an already operational system and coordination across a broad ecosystem of stakeholders. Together with its partners, the CIMA+|Hatch joint venture implemented an adapted governance framework, rigorous information management practices and mechanisms to transfer lessons learned from the delivery of the South Shore segment. More than 420 stakeholder workshops and 250 weekly technical meetings helped structure decision-making and support the delivery and commissioning of this major public transit project. About CIMA+.

This new office, located at 9928 100 Avenue becomes CIMA+'s fifth office in Alberta, and its 11th across Western Canada. The official opening was marked by a ribbon-cutting ceremony on October 1st, held in collaboration with the Grande Prairie Chamber of Commerce. The new office formalizes CIMA+'s presence in Grande Prairie, where employees have already been working locally for the past year. The firm plans to continue hiring in the coming months to strengthen its local team and expand its capacity to serve clients and partners across Northern Alberta. The Grande Prairie office is part of CIMA+'s broader strategy to bolster its presence across the province and position its teams closer to the communities and markets they serve. Northern Alberta continues to generate opportunities across several sectors, and the new office provides a local base from which CIMA+ can provide expertise in buildings, infrastructure, transportation, energy and resources, and other key sectors to support a wide range of projects. "Grande Prairie is an important part of our continued development in Western Canada and particularly in Alberta, where we see significant opportunities for growth across several markets. Establishing a permanent office here brings us closer to our clients and partners, and enhances our ability to respond to the evolving needs of our northern communities." said Daniel Matthews, Regional Executive Vice President, Western Canada at CIMA+. CIMA+ is committed to building a strong local presence and developing lasting relationships within the Grande Prairie business community. The firm recently became a member of the Grande Prairie Chamber of Commerce and intends to continue engaging with local organizations, clients and partners as its team grows. "Our goal is to combine local knowledge with national expertise. We know Grande Prairie, we understand the realities of the region, and we want to be active members of this community. At the same time, our clients and partners here can draw on CIMA+'s multidisciplinary expertise from across Canada to support projects in a wide range of sectors." said Trevor North, Lead Engineer and Grande Prairie Office Lead at CIMA+. Grande Prairie also represents a strategic location within the transportation and logistics corridor serving Northern Alberta and communities farther north. This positioning supports CIMA+'s broader market development strategy, including its growing capabilities in the defence sector. "Strengthening our presence in Northern Alberta is an important part of our defence market strategy. Grande Prairie's location along a key northern logistics corridor brings us closer to the communities, partners and infrastructure that will play an important role in supporting Canada's evolving defence needs.
