Engineering, Technical & Scientific

Science and technology is at the heart of the modern world and specialists in many fields are in high demand. At the same time, any given project may only need the services of a scientific or technical specialist for a limited period of time, typically ranging from a few months to a few years. These situations are difficult for many organizations to manage, and lead naturally to the use of staffing or outsourcing services companies to supply difficult-to-find expertise on an as-needed basis. Customers turn to Calian for this support because we have the capability to source all their needs, regardless of skill set, to do so efficiently, at competitive rates and manage both individuals and teams as customer requirements dictate.

Since 1985, BTS has been supplying engineering, technical and scientific expertise to government and industry across Canada and the United States. The range of skill sets that we routinely supply is extremely broad, encompassing:
  • Engineering—electrical, mechanical, chemical, civil, systems, aerospace, software/computer, and many others
  • Technical—logistics, electronics, mechanics, technical writing, fabrication, installation, assembly/test, operations, and many more
  • Scientific—chemical, environmental, nuclear, computer, and several others
Major customers include the Canadian Federal Government (e.g., Department of National Defence (DND), Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and Natural Resources Canada (NRCAN)) and defence and aerospace companies in private industry.
