DCL has a well-trained, professionally supervised and unionized workforce with extensive industrial construction experience particularly suited to oilsands projects.

  With most employees calling Fort McMurray home, DCL enjoys a high employee-retention rate. A strong local presence allows DCL to respond quickly to ebbs and flows of project activity in Northeast Alberta. This flexibility provides clients with added assurance and backup if projects face special scheduling requirements.

DCL's employee-training program supports development and improvement of skills. In conjunction with unions, the company operates a program to train and certify local Aboriginal workers as heavy-equipment operators.

DCL managers have participated in oilsands, hydroelectric, highway and other civil construction projects in Canada and abroad. This experience is backed by DCL's up-to-date information technology used in scheduling, 3D modelling and costing. DCL applies a quality management system to all company operations and insists on project-specific quality management plans.

DCL has the people to take on complex challenges and get the job done on time and on budget.
