What Clients Say

John is the consummate professional. In two trials for our firm, he provided clear, data-driven expert testimony explaining blast modeling from an explosion that resulted in two significant verdicts. I think EPS was the only expert firm in the country that could translate highly technical explosion evidence into plain, persuasive language the jury could understand. His meticulous analysis and calm, authoritative presence helped set the table for the remaining experts to explain how they used his work to assist the jury in deciding the case.
— Ryan Loya, Litigation Attorney, Kwok Daniel, Ltd, LLP
We worked with Dr. John Williams and the team at EPS over the course of a long-running and high-value dispute in the Supreme Court of Victoria in Australia. John’s vast depth of knowledge, keen intellect, and ability to convey complex ideas simply and succinctly were invaluable assets in the litigation. Through his expert reports, John was able to educate the legal team, the Court, and the Judge about the intricacies of the dispute. What’s more, he and his team were a pleasure to work with and produced consistently high-quality reports in a time and cost-effective manner. We felt incredibly well supported by the team at EPS and would not hesitate to work with them again.
— Andrew Stephenson, Partner and National Head of Projects; Jey Nandacumaran, Senior Associate, Corrs Chambers Westgarth
Project management, estimating skills, engineering, and design are all real core strengths of EPS…EPS’s comprehensive energy analysis for coal-fired versus gas-fired steam production, which approached the complexities of our plant’s utility and process systems, is one significant example. The project incorporated operating, maintenance, energy alternatives, risks, and future costs and presented a comprehensive financial assessment to our management in clear and concise language.
— Steve Saunders, Engineering Manager, US Petrochemical Producer
John Williams is an expert in the field. He not only renovated the business, but he changed the flow of the product for the company in terms of minimizing distances from raw materials to production to warehousing to shipping. Nobody within the company was thinking that way.
— Ron Halik, International Bioprocessing and Chemicals Corporation
EPS has for more than 20 years effectively provided mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, civil, and structural engineering, as well as project development and construction management, to increase our manufacturing site's competitiveness. The cost of EPS engineering is well justified in setting direction and providing project savings.
— John McKinley, Plant Manager, US Petrochemical Producer
In the world of startups, everything needs to be fast-tracked, because generally, it’s the first product for your company. If it doesn’t work, your company is dead, so you look for reliability, speed and cost. And EPS has delivered all three more than once.
— Pat Simms, Global VP, Renewable Chemicals and Biofuels Developer
Attention to detail, thorough understanding of engineering and its nuances.
— Kurt Brickley, Port of San Diego
Competent, professional, honest, and able.
