D&Z Acquires EMC Power to Serve Canadian Power Generation Market

Day & Zimmermann (D&Z), the century-old, family-owned provider of construction, engineering, maintenance, staffing, and defense solutions for leading corporations and governments around the world, has announced the acquisition of EMC Power Canada Ltd. (EMC), an Ontario-based specialized trade services and construction company. The acquisition expands D&Z's overall union staffing and project management capabilities as well as its geographic reach.

Founded in 2005, EMC provides a wide range of expertise and services, including manufacturing, installation, modification, and maintenance for power generation and distribution.  

"EMC has been providing cost-effective solutions to their Canadian customers for more than 15 years, delivering safe, exceptional, and reliable construction services and project management—the same results that Day & Zimmermann delivers for its U.S. customers," said Michael McMahon, President of Day & Zimmermann's Maintenance and Construction group. "This is a well-suited match that strengthens our commitment to the power industry on both sides of the border."

"Day & Zimmermann's reputation for labor excellence in the industry is bar none. Their commitment to the U.S. Building Trades and the trust and respect they have established with both the craft workforce and plant owners will translate well here in Canada," said EMC Owner Lou Camara.  "We look forward to contributing to Day & Zimmermann's continued success."

"This acquisition is a natural extension of our business in North America," McMahon said. "EMC's safety culture, values, and commitment to customers make them a perfect fit for Day & Zimmermann."
