## Responding to Disaster 

Powell has been a long-term contractor on New York City’s Metro North Railroad, one of the busiest commuter railroads in the United States. We have replaced the switchgear at 18 substations and hundreds of circuit breakers that lie beneath national landmarks like the Waldorf Astoria and Grand Central Station. Following the devastation of Hurricane Sandy in 2012, Powell was called on as one of the contractors to assist in the repair of damaged tunnels. 

Central to the Powell experience is our culture and the core values that drive our everyday thinking. We believe the customer is our lifeblood and that customer satisfaction is the focal point that guides our daily actions. We value the relationship we have with customers and strive to build at every level of involvement. Our achievements come from our employees and it is their passion that provides the ability to innovate and create the custom solutions that we offer. The Powell “can-do” spirit symbolizes who we are and drives us to fulfill our mission of solving our customers’ toughest problems. We are proud of our history and confident that our past is a sound foundation for our future.
