Company History
McHale & Associates, Inc. was formed in 1995 by Pat and Mike McHale as an outgrowth of their experience providing power plant performance testing services for over 30 years for Ebasco Services, Inc. and its successor, Raytheon Engineers & Constructors, Inc. Our success comes from our experience in startup, testing and operations for natural gas, fossil (coal, heavy oil, and distillate), renewable fuel, hydroelectric, geothermal, and wind power plants.
Our work with thermal performance audits, component testing, and overall performance testing has lead to development of computerized online plant performance monitoring systems and economic optimization packages. Our startup and operations background combined with performance improvement expertise has helped us develop systems that plant engineers and operators can use to improve and monitor plant performance. Among our other services, we offer a comprehensive field-tested instrumentation system rental package to facilitate data acquisition, as well as training and engineering models.
