About Minot Enterprises Engineering Consultants
Located in the Minneapolis / St. Paul suburb of White Bear Lake, Minnesota, Minot Enterprises was founded in 2004 as a Control Systems Integrator, with 3 employees who had a combined 45 years of automation experience and a passion for excellence. Today, we have grown to over 50 professional employees and staff and are still growing strong.
The secret to our success is our employees. Only the best in the engineering business are asked to join our team.
We have successfully completed projects located throughout North and South America, Europe, and Asia.
Founded As A Controls Integration Company
We started with three employees / managers at Minot Enterprises, a Controls Integration company. The three of us had many years of working, and being friends, together before our venture (from left to right: Mike VanHecke, Rob Opdahl, and John Fishpaw).
Data Management Engineering Consulting Added
Sub labelOur largest client was pressing us to supply services to do a factory database historian with web based reporting. So we added this service by hiring our first expert in this field. (Nice “Monday face”, Garth.)
Process Electrical Consulting Services Added
Sub-labelOur customers wanted us to be able to supply an electrical installation package with our controls design. So we were fortunate enough to land two respected names in the business to start this department.
Mechanical Design Engineering Consulting Added
Sub LabelMost of our projects involve mechanical engineering. So we hired a 30 year seasoned designer and purchased our first Siemens NX license.
Office Moved to White Bear Lake, MN
Sub LabelWe have grown to 50+ employees. Six managers run the business (from left to right: Mike VanHecke, John Fishpaw, Rob Opdahl, Russ Wyandt, Garth Neale, and Len Cochran).
Fabrication Shop Introduced
Providing custom built automation equipment for build to print, systems integrations, and turnkey automation.
From Our Customers…
“The project was grueling, and there were a lot of reasons why the project should have been a complete disaster, but you guys helped us pull off a miracle.”
“I have been using Minot Enterprises as the integrator for my equipment for the last 12 years. They are an invaluable resource to me. They are a critical resource to my manufacturing operation and they have never let me down. They are very service-oriented. The engineers they have working for them are excellent. I can’t say enough good things about them.”
“I hired your engineer to complete all the Webline PLC programming on a controls upgrade project and I wanted to send a note saying he did a great job. He showed up to checkout with his programming all complete. He was also willing to chip in and help out in areas that he wasn’t directly responsible for.”
