Message from the President Kevin Harrison, P.Tech.(Eng.), P.L.(Eng.)
Once again, I am honoured to be serving you as President of the ASET Council. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Past President, and current Second Vice-President, Norman Kyle for his service over the past year. And I would also like to welcome our newly-elected Councillors, Eric Amphlett, P.Tech.(Eng.), PMP, Adam Campbell, C.E.T., B.Geog., and Perry Eddy, C.E.T., B.Tech. Our 20132014 Council offers a balance of veteran experience and new energy. This is an amazing time within our history to be part of ASET. As you all know, we are celebrating our 50-year Anniversary, highlighted by the 50th Anniversary Gala in Edmonton on September 28, 2013 supporting the Engineering Technology Scholarship Foundation of Alberta (ETSFA). It will be a wonderful opportunity to reflect about our first 50 years, and the amazing journey we’ve taken to become the association we are now.
But looking forward is more important now than ever. The current review of the Engineering and Geoscience Professions (EGP) Act forces us to consider our association, and our role as the professional organization for technicians and technologists in the province. On the national level, our continued partnership with our sister provincial associations on the ongoing development of Technology Professionals Canada (TPC) is key to advocating for technicians and technologists consistently throughout the country. It is truly interesting times for us all, and one that I am proud to be part of. I look forward to continuing to raise the profile of our association, and cementing our legacy for years to come.
ASET is at its strongest point in history. We now represent approximately 18,000 members in Alberta. Our P.Tech. designation, with over 270 ASET members currently designated at that level, is already at a higher count than the former-RPT designation reached in its existence. Our members have praised the implementation of the ASET Permit to Practice, providing professional technologists the ability to sign and stamp their own work within a defined scope of practice. We have grown our association to its healthiest and most vigorous financial standing ever, with continued expansion of our services to members through strong fiscal management. We continue to grow initiatives that serve our membership, including the ATEN jobline, and many other opportunities for education and professional development.

Your Voice Barry Cavanaugh, J.D.
ASET’s mandate from the applied science and engineering technology professions includes a very clear responsibility to advocate for the technicians and technologists of Alberta… and as we have travelled the Province to meet with you, at our Open Houses, at Chapter meetings, at various events, we’ve heard an unequivocal direction that you want us to give voice to your needs, concerns, interests and passions… to Governments, to the public, to the other professions in related fields, and to other provinces’ counterpart organizations; indeed, to serve as a forum for you to address one another on those matters of great moment. Every profession needs such a voice. One voice alone, no matter how articulate or passionate, is drowned in the cacophony of interest and opinion which surrounds any public issue, even if that single voice has found the information and resources to express itself. But 18,000 voices, rising as one, with joined resources and with collaboration to develop a shared, sound position, are very difficult to ignore. Perhaps, some of you have told us, technicians and technologists have been too self-effacing, too deferring, too polite… perhaps your voices have been shouted down, figuratively speaking. Perhaps the legitimate interests of the profession, and its legitimate place in the engineering and science universe, have been ignored or overlooked. If that is the case, those days are gone. By your mandate to ASET, as a member of your voluntary representative organization, you have served notice that you have something to say… and ASET is here to give it voice.
You’ve seen us surfacing many issues over the past few years… from the rights of qualified and experienced technologists to practice engineering or geosciences within their established competencies, as P. Tech. (Eng.) or (Geo.), to the ability of technologists to oversee and sign off on downstream reclaimation and remediation, to the recognition of the certified technician or technologist in the federal civil service as uniquely qualified, the development of certification based on meaningful competencies, and many more issues and areas. We know that we’ve been speaking for you on these issues… and that it’s making a difference. And as we go forward, we will need your help. Stand up and be counted on the issues that matter to you! At times, we’ll be asking for your input… come out to our meetings, respond to our surveys! This is how your voice can blend with thousands, or can provide the insight and leadership to an issue that articulates it perfectly for your colleagues. It matters that everyone becomes aware that technicians and technologists can, and will, act together to be heard and to be effective. And when an issue matters to you, don’t assume that someone else will say it, or that “you can’t fight City Hall”. Call your MLA! Call your Councillor! Talk to your friends, your colleagues in other professions, your clients and co-workers, your employers. Every conversation makes a difference… and any time you speak or write, there’s a chance to open a mind or to change a perspective.
coming review of the Engineering and Geoscience Professions Act, and will be advocating for greater recognition of the competencies and qualifications of the Certified Technician, the Certified Engineering Technologist, and of course the Professional Technologist (Engineering or Geoscience). We have had 50 years – more, really – but 50 years of certification and regulation by ASET, of the cumulative and progressive establishment of remarkable knowledge, skills and capacity – which deserve recognition. We take the view that the people of Alberta deserve to know who is qualified to do a thing, and deserve then to be able to have them do it. To be limited or not recognized only because some prefer to be willfully blind to our qualifications is no longer acceptable to a knowledgeable Alberta public. No doubt, we will call on you to make your voices heard… and we will call on industry, the employers of this profession, to support greater range and independence in the workplace and in the field for our members. There has never been a better time for there to be an ASET…..
We will be developing ASET’s position and recommendations to the Alberta government regarding the

Making it “Lean” & Mean McCoy’s paradigm shift to take control of manufacturing process “Lean Implementation.” In today’s global economy, companies are continuously looking for that special edge. Just like clients and customers can be international, so can competitors. To bring your company to the forefront of an industry, it’s not just about the better product, or better service, but also finding efficiencies in producing that product or service. This is why Rajesh Bali, R.E.T., Manufacturing & Service Manager at McCoy Global in Edmonton, took the opportunity to produce one of their products in an innovative way. McCoy Global develops and manufactures innovative products for the global drilling and completions market. One of their products is the WinCatt Tourque/ Turn Management System, a sensor designed to monitor and control pipe connections within drilling sites. Over the past 10 years, the demand of the product has grown exponentially. And so it was time to make sure that the production capability matched that growth.
10
When Bali came to the company, he immediately observed inefficiencies that limited the number of products that the team was able to produce. Specifically, he noticed bottleneck issues in the process of manufacturing their WinCatt product. Bali, who was also a student in NAIT’s B.Tech. program, saw this as an opportunity. As part of a student applied research project competition, Bali and his team worked with McCoy Global to find solutions to these operational issues. “The first thing we did was to break down the manufacturing process completely,” recalls Bali. “We went so far as to videotape how each product was assembled, and analyzed the amount of time it took at each step.” Over six months of research, totaling 600-800 hours of intensive teamwork, Bali acted as Project Manager as his team analyzed everything from tool placement, to the amount of time it took to walk from each station to the next. They examined every detail, and brainstormed what could be done to eliminate inefficiencies. At the end of the project, Bali and his team presented their Lean Implementation solution. First, ensure that the required tools and materials were organized strategically, then arrange the stations to minimize assembly time. The result is the ability to reduce the production time of one unit from two hours and six minutes, to forty-seven minutes and thirty seconds – a theoretical 250% increase in production efficiency.

In addition, Bali proposed the design of a new 2870 ft2 facility for McCoy Global to help implement their lean solution, which officially opened in April 2013. The facility will also include space to train future service technicians of the WinCatt so that they will be proficient enough to do field repairs and adjustments. “It was definitely a paradigm shift within our company to look at, and change, how we manufacture our products,” said Bali. “But in the end, we developed a process that helps us meet the increasing global demand.” As a result of the success of the improvements to WinCatt production, Bali is also serving as an advisor to other divisions at McCoy Global to implement lean processes to their product development and manufacturing. There are many projects McCoy has identified for Capstone projects for the future. And if you’re wondering how the project did in the applied research competition – they finished in first place.

Rajesh has worked with McCoy Drilling & Completions for the last 3½ years as Wincatt/ weCATT Manufacturing & Service Manager, primarily in electrical design and also in the Manufacturing and Service groups. Mr. Bali has 26 years of experience in electrical power distribution & control system design, machinery design, manufacturing, and service as well as 10 years of Scientific Research and Experimental Development experience with slow flow carbon dioxide laser cutting systems with predecessor companies. In his current role as Manager Wincatt/ weCATT–Manufacturing, Service & Training, Mr. Bali is responsible for all aspects of production planning, production processes, lean implementation, training program development, service support, warranty and after sales service of the Wincatt/weCATT and associated products. Prior to joining McCoy, Mr. Bali worked with General Systems Research and Lacent Technologies Inc. in Edmonton, which was a leading edge high technology company. Mr. Bali holds a Bachelor of Technology in Technology Management degree and a Diploma in Electrical Engineering Technology from the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology, and holds the R.E.T and PEC professional designations from The Association of Science and Engineering Technology Professionals of Alberta and Electrical Contractors Association. In addition, Mr. Bali has a Masters in electrical trade.

Membership Proves Fundamental Len Power, R.E.T., firmly believes that to be continuously competitive in any industry, you need to make connections that help your company reach its full potential. As owner of Fundamental Technologies, Power leads a team of 17 staff members, primarily made up of technologists. And as an ASET member for over 10 years, he highly encourages his team to be members of the association. “The networking opportunities I have developed as an ASET member have helped my company grow,” says Power. “I’ve developed a connection with Past President Norman Kyle and he has been a great resource to me.” With a heavy reliance on graduates from technology programs at NAIT and SAIT, Power has used ASET’s professional development courses to continue his employees’ growth within their particular fields of expertise at Fundamental Technologies. The Grande Prairie-based project management firm focuses in two areas: Project Services, and Environmental Services. On the project management side, the company manages various aspects of pipeline and facility projects, from defining the project scope to conducting final evaluations. The second part of their business focuses on environmental services and working with clients to ensure their projects minimize the environmental footprint. “We’ve carved a very good niche in pre-design conceptual services,” states Power. “With the ability to manage different steps within the project life cycle, my staff need to continuously learn and grow their expertise.” Power’s next step is to work towards his P.Tech designation, giving him and his company the ability to streamline their workload and increase their growth. “I started this company in 2005 with the goal of growing the firm and making it a big part of the community,” says Power. “I am glad that we have a provincial association like ASET here for the companies.”

Let the Sun Shine Down Great Canadian Solar Alberta is globally recognized for its rich natural resources in energy. But while the province is known for coal and oil & gas, solar radiation is increasingly becoming a reliable and efficient energy resource. Clifton Lofthaug, C.E.T. & Master Electrician is the owner and operator of Great Canadian Solar Limited, an Albertabased start-up company striving to become the premier solar installer in Western Canada. No small feat for any entrepreneur, but more so within a province that has not traditionally been known as a hotbed for solar energy. With improving technologies, lower costs, reduced barriers and growing infrastructure, there is tremendous growth potential available to the industry. “We’re coming to an age where the technology is now available to make solar electricity a viable and economically affordable resource,” says Lofthaug. “It’s at the point where my clients are able to retrieve their initial costs within 20 years at the most.” And the technology keeps improving. Today’s solar-electric collectors [called photovoltaic (PV) modules] are typically covered by performance warranty for 25 years, and even after that time, the modules are operating at more than 80% of their initial rated output and are fully expected to operate many years longer.
20
It used to be that it was the initial costs that turned potential clients off at first, but those with a wider vision quickly learned of the value to their homes and facilities. With installed costs down 60% in the past few years, customers are quickly taking notice. “Many of our first clients focused on residential homes, but now we’ve moved heavily into commercial and agricultural facilities,” states Lofthaug. “We’ve grown from constructing a total of 8 kW of capacity in 2010 to a projected total of more than 300 kW in 2013.” Amazing growth for just one company considering Alberta is a market with no provincial or federal incentives for customers to switch to solar electricity. By comparison, other provinces like Ontario have provincial incentives for their citizens who opt to switch to solar electricity. Despite the challenges, Lofthaug is determined to make the company a success. He and his staff act as the first pointof-contact in the planning and design stages, work with their clients to develop a system that fits their budget, and connect with provincial utilities on their clients behalf. “We currently use a third-party to help with our design work,” explains Lofthaug. “So the next step will be to get P.Tech. certification so that we’re able to stamp our designs in-house. That will help drive the costs down for customers even more.”

As customers continue to learn about solar electricity, Lofthaug describes some of the more common myths that he encounters:
My th: Customers require batteries. For offgrid solar electric systems, the solar electricity is stored in batteries. However, most of our clients remain connected to the electricity grid, and when the solar electricity being generated is not used on the site, the surplus electricity is fed into the grid. Essentially, the customer provides electricity to the Wires Service Provider, and they get reimbursed directly from the Energy Retailer for that energy. When the solar electric system is not producing enough electrical energy to energize the site (i.e. every night), the site simply draws electricity from the grid as any other homeowner would.
t e c h n o l o g y a l b e r t a | Vol. 30, No. 2 | s u m m er 2013
My th: Solar energy equipment does not work well in winter. Actually, solar electric modules work better in cooler temperatures. The lower temperatures allow them to operate more efficiently, there by, increasing their energy output. My th: There’s not enough sunlight in Alberta. Alberta receives 50% more solar radiation than Germany, which has a burgeoning solar electric industry. Alberta’s solar energy resource is over 200 times more abundant than all of Alberta’s fossil fuel resources combined.

This year marked the inaugural year for auditing the continuing professional development of our regulated members. The professional technologist audit was completed in early June with only three technologists demonstrating non-compliance with the 2012 requirements. The end of June will see 10% of certified technicians and certified engineering technologists audited, and we anticipate a high rate of compliance. If you are audited, there are a few options you can use to submit your documents and record your learning activities. The first and most popular option is to record your learning online through the module that is available when you login to the member’s only side of the ASET website. We have seen thousands of ASET members make use of this site and it is an easy way to manage your continuing professional development. When you are audited, you will be asked to provide us with an email stating that your online record is up to date and we will then login to review your information. Alternative means for submitting documents is through email. You can scan your evidence or provide written information as to the learning you have done previously. At times you may be asked to provide more detail. Don’t forget to put dates including the year and the category of learning it falls into.
required for their practice. Working in a technical environment means that our membership is continuously learning just in order to keep up with the changes in technology. ASET has a program that ensures a mix of learning activities, and we have established a Practice Review Board and a Joint Practice Review Board. These Boards will meet in the fall to review program elements, determine future changes to the program and requirements for reporting. Whenever there are changes to the program, ASET will ensure that there is sufficient communication to the members so that the new requirements can be met easily. We anticipate some minor changes in the fall including some further guidance to members regarding the hours spent on each activity and what types of activities are considered satisfactory to meet the requirements of the program. If you have any questions about the program or need some guidance as to whether or not learning you have done fit the requirements, please do not hesitate to contact the office. Michelle Whaley, Registration Assistant with ASET, is the primary contact for the program and she can assist you with your questions. She can be reached at michellew@aset.ab.ca or 780-425-0626.

Government Relations Update Advocacy News On March 18, 2013, ASET met with the Associate Minister of Municipal Affairs, the Honourable Greg Weadick to discuss concerns regarding the safety codes system in Alberta, specifically as it relates to the independent practice of professional technologists. We had a very positive discussion resulting in a commitment of support from government pertaining to this issue. Despite not being cited in specific safety regulations or codes, the Safety Codes Act (the overarching legislation) enables a professional technologist to provide professional services, as well as stamp and seal documents applicable to the Act, pursuant to Section 11 and Section 45 of the Safety Code Act. The department of Municipal Affairs supports this position and has agreed to work with ASET to ensure professional technologists are able to practice engineering independently and take responsibility for work within their scope of practice. Up until now, we have been doing the ground work to put us in the most favorable position to advocate for recognition collectively within the safety code system in Alberta. Moving forward we will work with Municipal Affairs and connect with the appropriate people and entities to ensure relevant stakeholders understand the authority of a professional technologist as defined by the Engineering and Geoscience Professions Act and thereby referenced in the Safety Codes Act.
