We would also be in pipeline, chemical plant, refinery control rooms, air traffic control towers, network operation centres,” said Mathews of their work.Over the past four decades, Evans Consoles has designed and manufactured some 14,000 control rooms worldwide, employing about 400 people from its Calgary home.

So the people and the passion for the job is what has remained.”
