Great West Values
Committed to our clients and employees
How It All Started
Our roots date back to 1984 when President Emeritus Daniel McCauley partnered to form what is now Great West Engineering. Based in Helena Montana, the budding company quickly developed a reputation for client care and responsive service with the ability to secure funding to offset project costs. Since that time, the company has grown to close to 100 employees with locations in Montana, Idaho, and Washington. Much of the growth and success can be attributed to the original core values of client commitment, empowered employees, and quality solutions which the company still practices today.
Our Core Values
