Premay Equipment L.p

What Premay Equipment L.p does

Premay Equipment L.P. is a specialized heavy-haul transportation and rigging company headquartered in Nisku, Alberta, operating since 1964 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mullen Group Ltd. The company serves construction, mining, and petrochemical customers in Western Canada through eight integrated service lines: conventional transport (configurations up to 192 wheels), hydraulic heavy haul using Scheuerle Intercombi platform trailers (128+ lines) and K-100 series modular units (36 lines), Jack & Roll rigging (6 crews), gantry lifting (4 systems rated to 500 tons), railcar on/off loading, engineering and logistics, mine services (12 prime movers, 150-500 ton capacity), and SPMT alliance work. Supporting capabilities include storage and warehousing in Edmonton and Calgary, plus in-house maintenance and custom fabrication.

The company's core technology stack is capital-intensive physical equipment rather than software: a fleet of 35 company-owned prime movers and 50 lease-operator tractors, hydraulic heavy-haul platforms from Scheuerle, hydraulic gantries, SPMT alliance access, and conventional trailers configurable to 192 wheels. Engineering and logistics planning, route surveys, load analysis, and permitting are delivered as project-based services, indicating value is created through execution and specialized equipment rather than recurring software revenue. Approximately 150 employees operate out of Nisku (HQ), Fort McMurray, Edmonton, and Calgary. Customers include enterprise industrial firms; T.I.W. Western is identified as a Top 10 customer for whom a second 200-ton Hi-frame was commissioned in 2024 to double steam-generation component capacity.

The business model is transactional project-based B2B engagement. Revenue streams include specialized transportation, rigging services, mine services, railcar on/off loading, storage and warehousing, and maintenance and fabrication, each priced on a project or transaction basis. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and requires custom quotes per load, distance, and project complexity. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with direct customer engagement from Nisku and Fort McMurray, supported by industry referrals, a project gallery, and cross-referrals through Mullen Group's network. The company holds an AMVIC Licensed Business designation and published an Accessibility Plan for 2024-2027 under federally regulated subsidiary requirements.
