Vector Structural Engineering Opens New Office in Utah to Increase Engineering Student Opportunities

OREM, Utah -- Vector Structural Engineering ("Vector") is excited to announce that it's opening a new office in Orem, Utah. This office will focus mainly on the work that its college interns can perform, which includes supporting full time project engineers for tasks on larger projects and also helping to analyze existing residential homes where rooftop solar panels are being installed.

"The location was near a couple of college campuses and we have several student interns working for us so we're hoping to get more of the cream of the crop by being closer to a campus," Jacob Proctor, principal, Vector Structural Engineering, says.

Vector is working to develop engineering processes where projects can be broken down into smaller tasks and their plan is to train interns to help with those tasks. Having an office located near campus will allow them to more efficiently grow this part of the business.

Eric Sumsion, a senior engineer who has been with the company for nearly 10 years, will lead the charge at this new location where there are currently 22 people working out of the office. And the office is conveniently located near the mouth of the Provo Canyon.

"I'm sure that some employees will also take advantage of the fly fishing during their lunch hour," Sumsion says.

Orem is located in the Utah County of Utah and is known for its stunning views of the Wasatch Mountains and its location near outdoor recreation destinations. The city has a thriving economy and is home to numerous high-tech companies and educational institutions. It also offers a rich cultural and recreational experience with parks, museums, shopping centers and more.

"I'm excited for the opportunity to provide jobs to more engineering students, and the growth that we will be able to achieve as a company with this office," Proctor says.

Vector Structural Engineering Opens New Office in Texas

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Vector Structural Engineering is excited to announce that it's opening a new office in Arlington, TX. The reason behind this opening is two-fold: to expand its presence to better serve clients in need of excellent structural engineering services in Texas; and to help employees achieve their career goals.

Scott Van Hoose will lead the charge in this new location and he was largely responsible for its opening. When he approached the company about running his own office, they asked him quite simply, "Where?"

"We really wanted to help Scott grow in his career and when he decided he wanted a chance to run his own office, we didn't want to lose him," Jacob Proctor, CEO, Vector Structural Engineering, says. "Scott is a valuable, loyal employee and has shown that he is trustworthy and a very capable engineer."

Scott had a few states on the table that included California and Florida too, but he landed on Texas because his spouse has family in the region. Currently, there are three full-time engineers in the office and there's room to grow.

Scott's experience is mostly with miscellaneous steel structures, working with steel fabricators to design railings, and stairs, as well as signs and bridges. He also has experience with steel connections and prefabricated metal buildings. Vector's main office has vast experience with designing custom homes and residential businesses.

Proctor shares that all of Vector's engineers have access to a network of structural engineering experts throughout the company in order to serve diverse engineering needs and populations.

"I hope to be able to provide a client-oriented structural engineering service that focuses on providing a quality, economical design while ensuring client satisfaction," Van Hoose says.

The office also hopes to work closely with engineering students in the area to help them gain experience while going to school.

"We're excited about the opportunity to serve the community, and the growth potential for Vector by having our first office in Texas," Proctor says.
