Projects & Capabilities
Highline delivers mission-critical infrastructure for water, power, and fire-protection systems across high-risk and complex sites. We focus on engineered performance, design-build accountability, and reliable commissioning.
This page summarizes how we work, what we build, and the project types we are structured to deliver.
Core Capabilities
Highline’s capabilities are organized around the infrastructure systems that determine real-world performance.
Hydraulic Design & Modeling
Performance targets, static lift, friction losses, suction conditions, and system stability modeled to real equipment curves and site constraints.
Water Storage & Pumping
Cisterns, wet sumps, screened intakes, transfer and booster pumping, pressure systems, and engineered tie-in points.
Backup Power Infrastructure
Load studies, generator selection, ATS and distribution integration, fuel systems, and runtime planning for critical operations.
Fire Defense Infrastructure
Wildfire defense backbone systems aligned with applicable NFPA guidance and local requirements, including commissioning and performance verification.
Controls & Integration
VFD tuning where appropriate, sequencing, permissives, and telemetry/remote monitoring for operational assurance on select projects.
Commissioning & Turnover
Startup, verification testing, documentation, and owner training to ensure systems perform as designed and can be maintained long-term.
Project Types
Highline supports projects where reliability and performance under constraint are core requirements.
- Wildfire defense water supply systems including dedicated storage, pumping, pressure stabilization, and verified tie-in conditions
- Remote water infrastructure for mountain properties with long runs, elevation gain, and winterization requirements
- Standby power systems engineered for motor starting loads and integrated operation with pumps and controls
- Complex multi-trade integration where clear scope boundaries and interface management reduce project risk
- High-consequence sites where downtime, loss of water supply, or loss of power carries meaningful operational or asset risk
Delivery Model
Design-build
Highline delivers integrated scope and performance accountability from early design through commissioning.
Engineer-supported
Where required, Highline coordinates with licensed engineers for review, calculations, and permit-ready documentation.
Partner-integrated
When downstream distribution or specialty components are delivered by others, Highline provides verified infrastructure tie-in readiness.
Performance Focus
Highline is built around measurable performance, not generic scope language. Our projects prioritize:
- Defined flow and pressure targets at connection points
- Conservative design margins for real conditions
- Serviceability and long-term maintenance planning
- Clear interface boundaries between trades
- Commissioning, testing, and documented turnover
Discuss Project Fit
If your project involves wildfire risk, remote conditions, complex hydraulics, or critical backup power, Highline is prepared to evaluate scope and performance requirements and define the right infrastructure approach.
