A small firm. Tier-1 work.

Brownclaw is a growing reliability and asset-management practice. Our engagement archive runs across tier-1 metallurgical coal preparation, sub-arctic diamond fleet programs, copper concentrators, and zinc smelters — and we're scaling the team to match the work that's coming in. Every engagement is led by a P.Eng on the floor, deliverables ship without a partner-stamp layer, and we hire engineers against the engagements they'll lead — never to fill a staffing matrix.

FILE 005 · ABOUT THE FIRM

Eight years on the iron.
The seam, the pit, the control room.

Connor Schriver is a Professional Engineer (P.Eng) and Certified Maintenance & Reliability Professional (CMRP) with on-site experience across metallurgical coal, diamond, gold, copper, and zinc operations in Western Canada and the Rocky Mountain corridor. Brownclaw was founded to bring serious reliability practice to operations that don't have a 200-person corporate reliability team — and don't need one.

Asset management isn't an audit — it's a relationship between the people doing the work and the strategy on paper. My job is to close the gap.

How an engagement runs

  1. 01

    Discovery (no-cost)

    Thirty-minute structured call. Bring the worst bad-actor on your floor; we identify whether reliability practice is the right tool. If it isn't, we say so.

  2. 02

    Scoping memorandum

    A two-page brief: assumptions, deliverables, phases, fee, what we need from your team. No hidden retainers.

  3. 03

    Phase 1 — Establish baseline

    CMMS extract, asset hierarchy review, criticality reset, bad-actor list. Two to four weeks.

  4. 04

    Phase 2 — Tactic library + pilot

    Failure-mode-traced tactics on top-criticality assets, written in your CMMS. Operator training in-place.

  5. 05

    Phase 3 — Hand-off

    Methods documented, your team trained on the workflow, KPI dashboard installed. We leave when your program runs without us.

REQUEST · ENGAGEMENT INTAKE

If your reliability program isn't aging well, let's talk.

First conversations are free and structured. Thirty minutes is usually enough to know whether we're a fit. Bring your worst bad-actor; we'll bring questions.
