“Working with ER3 Engineering has been an exceptional experience. Ron Schapf has demonstrated unparalleled expertise and technical knowledge, providing precise and innovative solutions that surpassed our expectations. The accuracy and attention to detail exhibited in every phase of the project were truly impressive, resulting in a flawless execution and delivery of the final product.”

Jim Mayfield, Sub Sea Systems

“I'm writing to express our absolute appreciation for the engineering review completed by Ron Schapf, Chief Engineer and the ER3 team for our Aquaticar theme park ride system. As you know this was a comprehensive design, fatigue and stress analysis for submission to TUV SUD to complete a 3rd party certification of the ride system. It was complex and highly scrutinized. ER3 brought calm to the process and completed the task faster than expected and right on budget. “
