Our Story

Donovan Quaid, Q3 Engineering - Mechanical & Controls Engineer

I graduated from The University of Tulsa with a Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering. After graduating, I started working for a combustion company where I managed domestic and international projects. During my tenure, I transitioned into instrumentation & control system design for combustion systems. I was also actively involved in logic programming for safety instrumented systems, process control, HMI design, and communication and commissioning for complex combustion equipment. I received an opportunity to further develop my I&E skill set by transitioning into a heat treating and manufacturing company where I managed capital projects, as well as conducted troubleshooting and equipment design.

Through years of industrial experience and a background in Mechanical Engineering, control system design and commissioning we noted the importance of customer support and troubleshooting. With a family of Engineers, similar sentiment arose paving the way to provide support to the respective industries and support our family. As a result Q3 Controls was formed in 2018. We have continued to adapt and grow with our customers providing dedicated support and look forward to the ability to grow with them in the future.

Our Mission

Q3 Controls works seamlessly and collaboratively with customers to solve their technical challenges. We are in the unique position to understand our clients and their needs since we have due to our background in designing, commissioning and operating equipment in the field. We have experienced the pain of looming project deadlines, unexpected equipment maintenance or failures, and the need to have responsive, competent support. We come from a variety of backgrounds, but we've all recognized good support can be the difference that recovers a schedule or saves a critical piece of equipment.

Our Vision

Our Vision is to be a true twenty-first century engineering firm that has a level of responsiveness above all other competitors.

In addition to various mechanical and controls engineering responsibilities, Q3 Controls provides partnering services such as 24/7 phone support, after hours on-site service, and supplemental engineering staff support. As a company, we strive daily to provide our customers with the service that we demanded during our years in industry. Our goal is to develop and nurture truly symbiotic relationships that will benefit our customers and our family for generations to come.
