has a team of 10, and in the short-term Kyle sees that number growing to a “solid 15,” after which they will re-evaluate and “see how it feels.” According to Kyle, the opportunity to grow even bigger is definitely available, and that’s a credit to the firm’s reputation. He calls ATAL a “mainstay firm here in Regina,” and he says they have earned that recognition by being “very client-focused.” “We go out of our way to service the client and meet their needs,” Kyle explains. “We make sure that their vision is executed. We stand by them throughout the whole process. And when things go sideways – as happens sometimes in construction – we’re adaptable and we help them work towards the best solution for everyone.” “We’re also very transparent,” he adds. “We don’t shy away from the tough conversations. When we get something wrong, we’re the first to admit it. A lot of our clients have repeatedly come back to us, and I think that’s a big reason why – they really appreciate our transparency and honesty.” Many of ATAL’s clients go back over 10 years. Many of the firm’s other relationships are even longer-standing. Some of their contracting and engineering partners, for example, started working with Alton early on in his career and are still working with the firm today. One example of a frequent collaborator would be Mechanical Design Group, a Regina-based company with a longstanding history in the region. They offer building mechanical systems design and associated services, and their staff has industry experience extending over five decades. Today, they offer a number of services related to the building sciences, including traditional engineering, project management, energy management and conservation, development of preventative and predictive maintenance programmes, and owner’s representation services. Much like ATAL, they take pride in their ability to work collaboratively with all project stakeholders in order to provide clients with solutions that are both effective and cost efficient. JUNE 2025
