Electrical Connection IBEW/NECA in the News


One of the largest healthcare projects in the region is advancing with the skills of several Electrical Connection contractors, led by NECA contractor Guarantee Electrical. The new 14-story SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital recently celebrated its topping out. Electrical, communications technology and systems integration is proceeding in earnest by the Guarantee team that includes Avid Electric and Communication, TD4 Electrical, and J West Electrical. Liberty Electric is also engaged in the project. The new hospital, with more than 200 beds planned, will include an expanded pediatric intensive care unit, more operating rooms and new units dedicated to bone marrow transplants and dialysis for younger patients, according to SSM.  Learn more.

It’s nice when your work is noticed. That was the case for IBEW Local 1-signatory Fusion Tech Companies in the latest issue of St. Louis Homes and Lifestyles. It spotlighted Fusion Tech’s “meticulously installed kitchen island lighting sculpture and other chandeliers throughout the home working closely with Mike Craft of Metro Lighting.” Learn more.

It’s also nice when you receive national honors, which is the case with NECA contractor Coltrane Systems Founder and CEO Rick Coltrane. He was a TITAN 100 Award recipient.
“The Titan 100 recognizes the region’s top CEOs and C-level executives who demonstrate exceptional leadership, vision, and passion in their industries. Rick’s dedication to building a strong team and delivering innovative technology solutions continues to drive Coltrane Systems forward.”
