Where engineers find JOY

With all the changes in the world, we asked our employees where they find joy.

These are their captured moments.

Islamorada Florida

Islamorada, Florida Key

“A calm, reflective ocean and a beautiful skyline of the Florida Keys is all I need to see to find joy in nature.” ~ Dalton Sheehan, Controls Engineer, Ignition certified specialist.

My Hallam Story

Vermont - Llama

Vermont

“We drive on tons of back roads in Vermont. Somewhere between Huntington and Waitsfield, we came across someone’s farm. The llama didn’t move… he was watching over the sheep.” ~ Pamela Boutin-Adams, Purchasing Agent.

My Hallam Story

Smugglers Notch - Vermont

Smuggler's Notch, Vermont

“I was skiing in the woods and I had just gotten off the last chair for the day. I ducked into the trees for my final run when I saw the sun was about to disappear behind Mt Mansfield. This photo doesn’t do justice to the feeling that came with being in that moment. I can honestly say that being able to ski the mountains provides me with a deep sense of serenity. No matter what else might be happening in life, skiing rejuvenates my soul.” ~ John Kurowski, Senior Engineer, Toxic Gas Monitoring Systems specialist.

My Hallam Story

Ent gully - Vermont

ENT Gully, Smuggler's Notch, Vermont

“While winter in Vermont can be dark and cold, it also opens the door to all sorts of fun and exciting activities that can’t be done in any other season. Ice climbing is one of my favorites. I’m freezing cold, a little scared, can’t feel my arms, and loving every minute of it.” ~ Michael Collier, IT Cloud cybersecurity and virtualization specialist.

My Hallam Story

Ft Myers Beach - Florida

Bowditch Point Park, Ft. Myers Beach, Florida

“I love to create, and quilting is a creative outlet for me. I find joy in picking out colorful fabrics, usually with a specific recipient in mind, and then stitching the pieces together to form something beautiful. This pineapple quilt I made for myself and what a better spot to enjoy it than with your toes in the sand watching a peaceful sunset at the beach.” ~ Tricia Becker, Social Media Coordinator.

My Hallam Story

Roxbury Gap - Vermont

Roxbury Gap, Warren, Vermont

“I find joy by touring the thousands of miles of dirt roads in central Vermont. I feel that I’m traveling back in time and seeing the ‘old’ Vermont that I remember as a kid growing up on a dairy farm. Does my heart good.” ~ Chris Clark, Senior Control Systems Engineer, process controls and automated manufacturing systems specialist.

My Hallam Story

Swedish - Royal Guard

Swedish Royal Guard, Stockholm, Sweden

“A very joyful memory from a “once in a lifetime” vacation we took a couple of years ago to Sweden, Norway and Iceland. My son was in his teens and it was important that he be old enough to remember the trip, reuniting with distant relatives for the first time and rediscovering Stockholm with them.” ~ Dan Zang, Lead Electrical Designer.

My Hallam Story

Alaska bear

Alaska

“As early as I can remember, I have been captivated by Alaska because of the vast stretches of untamed wilderness, its unforgiving nature, and the tranquility of its terrain. After finally being able to take the trip, I found that the Alaska is far more magnificent and breath-taking than I could have ever imagined.” ~ Casey Hanlon, Assistant Controller.

My Hallam Story

Lake Champlain Bridge - Vermont

Lake Champlain Bridge, Burlington, Vermont

“During the past year of less travel to faraway places, I became more curious about familiar places. I have crossed this bridge hundreds of times. When I became curious enough to explore the banks of the river below, I was surprised by the contrast and beauty. I have found much joy and inspiration from a fresh perspective on the mundane and familiar.” ~ Brent Weigel, PhD, Senior Project Manager.

My Hallam Story

Megunticook Lake Maine sunset

Megunticook Lake, Camden, Maine

“We spent a month in a rental cottage on a lake. Swimming, kayaking, hiking and mountain biking at adjoining hills and the rugged mountain, visiting the seacoast along Penobscot Bay, our days were filled with activities. At the end of each day, we enjoyed one of these wonderful sunsets while relaxing on the dock. The joy of sunsets. ‘Nuff said.” ~ Allan Stier, Controls Engineering Manager.

My Hallam Story

Yellowstone National Park elk

Yellowstone National Park

“I love traveling and hiking, and the national parks are a great way to do both. It brings me joy, the candid and spontaneous experiences you find in these places, like this elk feeding at a trailhead. Capturing a fleeting moment like that is truly special.” ~ Geoff Rosenthal, Software Engineer, Manufacturing Intelligence.

My Hallam Story

North Creek rail New York

Biking the Rail in North Creek, New York

“In the time of social distancing and Covid, we had to get creative in celebrating a family member’s birthday. We booked some rail bikes and it ended up being the most beautiful fall day. We were able to spend time together safely and had a great time - even seeing a family of black bears crossing the river.” ~ Jenna Beatty, Commissioning Manager.

My Hallam Story

Sedona Arizona Sunrise

Sunrise at Cathedral Rock, Sedona, AZ

“I find joy in my family and in being active enjoying nature. This photo was taken during a sunrise hike up Cathedral Rock with my daughter. We were driving cross-country from Vermont to California, and we stopped for a few days in Sedona to enjoy the area and the many hiking trails.” ~ Keith Flaherty, CEO

My Hallam Story

Plymouth Harbor Sunrise

Sunrise over Plymouth Harbor, MA

“My young daughter took this photo at about 5:30am near Plymouth Rock on a fishing trip. We saw this sunrise and she grabbed my phone to take pictures. I don’t think she had ever been up this early to see something like this. My joy was really just witnessing her and getting to experience this sunrise with her.” ~ Vincent Calio, Regional Manager, Southern New England Region

My Hallam Story

Morocco Goat Trees

Goat Trees of Morocco

“In Morocco locals stage these live “goats in trees” scenes alongside the tourist-traveled roadways. On a day excursion from Marrakesh to Essaouira our tour driver stopped for us to take photos of this spectacle. I was surprised and thrilled to see it up close.” ~ Brian Bourdeau, IT Director.

CUP Case Resources thumb

CUP Control System Upgrade

The control system in the Central Utility Plant (CUP) was approaching obsolescence and needed to be upgraded to mitigate the risk of a hardware failure interrupting manufacturing. We were hired to upgrade the entire control system while keeping the CUP running. The systems were upgraded to the site standard without a single interruption to services.

Pfizer Chiller Case Resources thumb

Chiller Upgrade Design

This project included the installation of two 1250 ton steam driven chillers to replace three existing steam absorption chillers. Due to the tight space constraints for the project, Hallam-ICS utilized a 3-dimensional model for the piping layout which allowed the project to be completed with the planned schedule and budget while not impacting existing operations.

Arc Flash Analysis

The Fairfax County Public School (FCPS) system is one of the largest in the United States, consisting of over 250 buildings across 400 square miles, serving 180,000 students. FCPS issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for an "all inclusive" Arc Flash Analysis. Hallam-ICS utilized the 7 steps that ensure the success of a thorough Arc Flash Assessment.
