CIMA+ Expands Western Canada Footprint With New Grande Prairie Office

Engineering firm CIMA+ has opened a new office in Grande Prairie, Alta., expanding its presence in Western Canada as it continues to pursue growth opportunities in the region.

The office, located at 9928 100 Avenue, is CIMA+’s fifth location in Alberta and its 11th across Western Canada. The firm marked the opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Oct. 1, held in partnership with the Grande Prairie Chamber of Commerce, which CIMA+ recently joined as a member.

Although the office formally opened last week, CIMA+ employees have already been working in Grande Prairie for the past year. The company says it plans to continue hiring in the area in the coming months, pointing to ongoing project opportunities across various sectors in Northern Alberta.

Local Presence and Client Relationships

Daniel Matthews, CIMA+’s regional executive vice-president for Western Canada, said establishing a permanent office in Grande Prairie brings the firm closer to its clients and partners in the region.

Ties to Defence Sector Logistics

Sylvain Gazaille, CIMA+’s senior director for the defence market, said Grande Prairie’s position along a key northern logistics corridor brings the firm closer to the communities, partners and infrastructure expected to play a role in supporting Canada’s evolving defence needs.

The new office reflects CIMA+’s broader expansion strategy across Western Canada, where it now operates 11 locations in total.
