About Andrew Proeschel

I am an accomplished mechanical engineer and Project Manager with extensive experience leading complex industrial projects from concept through procurement and pre-installation planning. I specialize in full EPC ownership of process equipment projects, including budget and schedule oversight, engineering coordination, global supplier management, international freight and domestic logistics, and interface with suppliers and clients. My experience spans multi-million-dollar greenfield and international projects, where I deliver technical solutions on time and within budget while maintaining strong professional relationships with suppliers and clients.In addition to my role as a Project Manager at Direxa Engineering, I continue to run AP Renovations LLC, a residential construction business I founded. This allows me to combine my engineering expertise with entrepreneurial skills, managing projects, budgets, and client expectations in a hands-on, customer-focused environment.With over a decade of experience in mechanical engineering and project management, I thrive in fast-paced, technically demanding environments. I excel at cross-functional collaboration, aligning project goals with client needs, and driving results through careful planning, organization, and clear communication. I am passionate about creating impactful solutions, whether in industrial EPC projects or residential construction, and I enjoy mentoring teams, optimizing processes, and ensuring project success from start to finish.
