We have a unique partnership model that offers ownership opportunities to top performing employees in key positions. As a result, our owners come from the ranks of our own workforce. They're seasoned technical professionals and they're all actively engaged in the operations of our company. This is good for Vista and even better for our clients.

Vista owners who have a financial stake in our mutual success are managing your projects. It gives you a level of accountability and accessibility that's becoming a rarity in the oil patch.

Furthermore, because we are employee owned, we can make decisions that are based on local project realities. We can be flexible and let project schedule needs shape our recommendations. If we like the look of a project and believe in its potential, we're not obligated to meet quarterly targets or adhere to rigid policies laid down by some distant head office.

We created our company to serve energy producers in Western Canada. As their needs evolve, so do ours. But the basics that we bring to the table as engineers - technical competence, delivering tangible value, innovation and responsible growth - these haven't changed in 26 years. And they probably never will.
