ECORA IS AN ENGINEERING, ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCE CONSULTING COMPANY
We are committed to delivering quality services to our valued clients. Our incredible team of engineers, environmental scientists and resource professionals work together to provide clients with a synergistic service offering unique to the industry. We are built on the foundation of our core values; commitment to our people, our relationships, our community and our environment.
The ECORA Difference
Ecora was launched in 2010 as a forestry and environmental services firm thanks to the vision of four established industry leaders: Kelly Sherman, Dan Bernier, Dave Myers and Shikun Ran. The quartet had previously combined their skills with another company but they each held a strong belief that a new direction was needed to attain more predominant success and so they branched out on their own. We then joined forces with Mike Young, a civil engineer who has a deep resume of completed projects in the Okanagan region dating back to 1995. Young joined the firm as an equal partner, and it was at that time when Ecora officially expanded into the engineering space. Our initial four co-founders each remain engaged in daily operations and have seen their Kelowna-based enterprise expand to 150 people over the first eight years.
Our friendly and passionate team offers a full spectrum of consulting services in natural resource, and engineering to our diverse clients in forestry, oil and gas, municipal developments, environmental, alternative energy, and other industries. In addition to these clients, we provide services and support to meet the unique needs of various First Nations communities.
“We are excited to partner with Chief Clarence and Osoyoos Indian Band and support OIB’s depth of cultural and commercial initiatives on band land and their traditional territory. This partnership will further strengthen the relationship between OIB and Ecora that has been built over the last decade of working together on various projects.” – Kelly Sherman, CEO, Ecora Engineering
As a team of natural resource experts and engineers, there is a strong awareness and value placed on our environment. We have an unwavering commitment to the environment and our expertise can be used to foster environmental stewardship that strives for balance with social and economic values.
