Value-Added Ag
Uptime Is Everything
Ethanol. Corn oil. Distillers grains. Renewable diesel. Turning agricultural commodities into higher-value products depends on complex processes that have to keep running. Keen Project Solutions brings engineering, construction and field experience together to help clients make facility improvements while keeping production requirements front and center.
Engineering Meets Execution
Our industrial team includes engineers and builders who understand both the process and the facility around it. We know that a change in one area can affect another, especially in complex environments where uptime is critical. That technical perspective helps us plan construction around production needs and anticipate how the work will affect the facility as a whole.
Our experience in milling is one example. These highly interconnected facilities often have demanding uptime requirements, making preparation, coordination and technical understanding especially important. We bring that same mindset to work across value-added ag processing environments.
“Simply put, Keen Project Solutions is a contractor you can trust — with your project, your people and your investment. I recommend them without hesitation to any organization seeking a partner who demonstrates excellence not only in construction, but also in integrity and client commitment.”

Protecting Your Operation
Safety is paramount. Working in an active facility requires careful planning before construction begins. Our teams think through how equipment will be safely removed or replaced, how the work will be sequenced and how production will be affected. That level of preparedness is especially important during shutdowns, when timing and coordination have to come together. As with most refiners, you only get one or two shots a year for planned outages.
Committed to Transparency
Complex work in an active facility requires close coordination between your team and ours. We communicate openly, work through problems together and make sure the people who know your process are part of the conversation. Our goal is to work as an extension of your team, providing the transparency and coordination that are key to building long-term relationships. We’re also your advisor, aiming to arm you with technical information to make sound decisions.
