2025 NRCA Constructing Excellence Awards

We’re proud recipients of three Northern Regional Construction Association Constructing Excellence Awards! For 2025, Houle was recognized as the Employer of the Year, along with the Safety Excellence Award, and the Electrical Contractor of the Year (Over $2 Million) for our work at Ksyen Regional Hospital.

We’re proud to have received these awards, representing Houle’s commitment to safety, our people-first culture, and our ability to deliver increasingly complex projects. Rooted in our core values, our people-first culture cultivates a workplace where trust, respect, and opportunity thrive. We apply the same commitment to safety, ensuring that our policies, procedures, and practices prioritize the physical and mental well-being of our people and those around us.

Our work at Ksyen Regional Hospital (formerly the Mills Memorial Hospital Redevelopment Project) highlighted our capacity to deliver state-of-the-art electrical and technology solutions. Thanks to the hard work, innovation, and dedication of the Kysen project team, we completed the project one month ahead of schedule and on budget. Now operational, the new hospital will serve the healthcare needs of Terrace and its surrounding communities for decades to come.

ABOUT KSYEN REGIONAL HOSPITAL

Leveraging our multi-disciplinary teams, we delivered electrical and technology solutions for this project, including electrical, lighting, security, audio-visual, and structured cabling.

Highlights from the project include a 25KV power distribution system down to panelboards, emergency generators, Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), lighting and lighting controls, and fire alarm.

Our technology solutions include structured cabling, intrusion detection, wired duress, Real-Time Locating System (RTLS), wireless duress, video surveillance, nurse call, access control, and infant abduction systems — all integrated through a single-pane platform that allows us to manage all the technology systems from one dashboard.
