Timber Run Hydropower Corporation mandated Equinox Construction Services (ECS) to carry out the design, contracting, sourcing, execution and QA/QC, along with the Project Management tasks, of the reinforced concrete structures of the Norland Hydropower Plant. After completing the Dewatering and Excavation phases, ECS was responsible, through a turnkey delivery model, for delivering the structures that were designed by a 3rd party, under ECS supervision.

Also known as an ECI (Early Contractor Involvement) model, ECS was deeply involved in optimizing the designs, preparing realistic budgets and timelines, updating the relevant stakeholders, and prioritizing the Client's objectives.

Furthermore, ECS managed the approval process with the Parcs Canada Agency (PCA) as well as the Quality Control of the 270 cubic-metre volume as well as the integration of the various trades, suppliers and inputs involved in the Electrical, Hydrotechnical, Turbine, Telecommunications and Strucutre divisions.
