McKInney-based electrical systems and solutions provider Mission Critical Group has acquired Leman Engineering and Consulting, a Brookston, Indiana–based manufacturer of switchgear, control systems, and power distribution equipment.
“LEC has exceptional people and a proven record of quality and innovation,” Mission Critical Group CEO Jeff Drees said in a statement. “By bringing best-in-class companies like LEC into our portfolio, we’re strengthening every layer of the power distribution chain, from engineering and manufacturing to service and field execution, and advancing our ability to deliver resilient, U.S.-based power infrastructure.”
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
MCG said the acquisition strengthens its Midwest manufacturing presence, expands its engineering capabilities, and establishes LEC as MCG’s research and development hub for power generation engineering. The hub focuses on switchgear innovation for onsite generation, prime power, generator paralleling, behind-the-meter systems, and microgrids, MCG said.
The company said that with expertise in prime power distribution design, precision manufacturing, and engineering, LEC strengthens MCG’s unified power and energy infrastructure platform, delivering high-performance electrical solutions across data center, healthcare, industrial, oil and gas, and other critical markets.
MCG said LEC’s capabilities in UL 891 switchboards, UL 1558 switchgear, and medium-voltage equipment further expand MCG’s technical depth and manufacturing reach.
MCG’s R&D hub
The establishment of MCG’s R&D hub also will align with strategic university partnerships specializing in power engineering to advance innovation and workforce development across the electrical manufacturing sector, MCG said.
“We’re proud to join MCG and contribute to its continued growth and innovation,” said Randy Leman, president of Leman Engineering and Consulting.
Leman will now serve as vice president of engineering and product management for electrical equipment at MCG. The Indiana team will continue operating under existing leadership.
The addition of LEC marks MCG’s second acquisition this year and its sixth in the past 24 months.
The company said that with more than 1 million square feet of U.S. manufacturing space, MCG is continuing to expand its capacity to design, build, deliver, and service resilient power infrastructure nationwide.
MCG designs, manufactures, delivers, and services innovative solutions to solve its customers’ critical power challenges.
The company offers packaged power solutions and products, leveraging more than 1,000 employees with 200+ years of combined mission critical staff leadership experience. MCG companies include JTS, Point Eight Power, DVM Power + Control, and Leman Engineering and Consulting.
