General Project Characteristics
  With over 100 projects per year, the majority awarded non-bid by repeat clients, project listings can becomes cumbersome and repetitive. However, to represent the flavor of our work and experience find here a list of Representative Projects per year.

All clients, sites and other project specifics have been generalized for reasons of confidentiality. Specifics and References can be provided upon qualified request.

A characteristic of Mangan is our practice of blending with project teams assembled by our clients. To represent the ways this can be arranged a legend is shown for each representative project identifying the areas of work in typical automation projects. The areas we were responsible for are indicated with a [•]. Although there are any number of arrangements for project teams, they all have one thing in common: the break-out and teaming made the most sense for our clients.
