Vertically integrated industrial services and electric power delivery contractor
Crest Industries operates a diversified family of industrial and utility businesses—electric power delivery, fabrication, galvanizing, substations, natural resources—built on a legacy ERP and manufacturing stack (SAP, Epicor, Primavera P6, AutoCAD). The hiring profile is heavily weighted toward engineering and manufacturing roles, reflecting capital-intensive project execution. Active pain points (quality tied to equipment, rework reduction, contractor reliance, ERP modernization) signal a company optimizing labor and asset utilization rather than automating them away.
Crest Industries is a privately held contractor and industrial services company headquartered in Pineville, Louisiana, with 1,001–5,000 employees. Founded in 1958, the company operates through a portfolio of subsidiaries spanning electric power delivery, industrial fabrication (steel, substations), distribution, natural resource management, and field services. The business is project-oriented, moving work through an SAP/Epicor-based ERP with Primavera P6 for scheduling and design tools (AutoCAD, Inventor) for engineering. The company is actively scaling, with 102 open roles and steady hiring across manufacturing, engineering, and operations—primarily mid-level and junior positions. Key challenges include managing equipment-related quality issues, reducing rework, controlling contractor costs, and modernizing legacy ERP infrastructure.
Primary tools: SAP and Epicor (ERP); Primavera P6 (project scheduling); AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor (design); Power BI (analytics); Office suite and CNC/PLC for manufacturing operations.
