About
With bonding capacity surpassing $250 million and nearly four decades of heavy industrial electrical contracting, Olsson Industrial Electric brings enterprise-scale capability to the most demanding power and controls projects in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Founded in 1986 and headquartered in Springfield, Oregon, Olsson operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of NAES Corporation and deploys a workforce of more than 300 across three specialized divisions: Olsson Industrial Electric, Olsson Controls, and OS Engineering. This integrated structure gives facility managers and plant engineers a single-source contractor capable of handling every layer of a complex electrical project — from high-voltage power distribution and switchgear installation to industrial controls programming and full SCADA system design. Olsson's construction teams are experienced in maintenance, troubleshooting, and new construction across heavy industry sectors including pulp and paper, timber and forest products, metal and recycling, hydroelectric and hydropower, and utility infrastructure. Signature completed projects include station service improvements at McNary Lock & Dam and The Dalles Dam, as well as capital upgrades at Seneca Sawmill — demonstrating consistent performance on large-scale government and industrial facilities. The in-house Olsson Controls division designs, builds, and maintains industrial control systems and plant automation platforms, while OS Engineering provides power system design and analysis, ensuring projects are engineered correctly before construction begins. With offices across multiple states and a project portfolio spanning Washington, Oregon, and beyond, Olsson is well positioned to support multi-site industrial and utility clients requiring consistent standards across locations. For facility managers overseeing industrial plants, warehouses, or utility infrastructure in the Eugene–Springfield metro and the broader Pacific Northwest, Olsson Industrial Electric delivers the financial strength, technical depth, and field experience to execute complex electrical projects on time and on budget.
