We previously wrote about Total Field & Environmental Services (TFES), a North Dakota based oilfield service company. As mentioned then, we were quite pleased to welcome a stellar company outside the typical residential construction realm into our ecosystem. It showed the versatility and power of our Scotpanel 7090G2 system, arguably the most sold roll forming machine anywhere in the world. Well, we are pleased that TFES was so successful with their Scottsdale roll former that they decided to augment their current steel roll forming machine with our Scottruss 6050G1, having operated their Scotpanel 7090G2 system for only a few months. The simple truth is that prefabricated steel framing and offsite construction help any building segment beyond just the typical residential applications.
Welcome aboard, yet again, guys. It is a blast to see you grow and expand. We thank the TFES owner, Tony Burke, for his vision and the ability to uncover value by deploying it swiftly wherever it helps his industry and expands his company’s competitive standing.
Just Who is Total Field & Environmental Services (TFES)
TFES is a North Dakota based service company catering to the Baaken Basin oil exploration segment of the energy industry. TFES, among other things, builds prefabricated modular units used for housing and storing of the oil exploration accessories and hardware ranging from chemicals to generators. The owner and the president of TFES is Tony Burke, who brings about significant know-how and experience in the energy sector. TFES acquired an advanced steel framing system Scotpanel 7090G2 in 2024, and quickly found success in what they determined to be a perfect supplement and rocket fuel for their operation. Encouraged by the efficiency of this widely distributed rollforming system, TFES quickly ordered a steel truss manufacturing system Scottruss 6050G1 to expand their operation.
Why Scottsdale (Again)
Tony Burke, the owner of TFES was quite direct in his sentiment in explaining why he went so quickly with another Scottsdale roll forming machine in such a short period of time, and how Scottsdale and cold-formed steel in general fundamentally transformed his business:
The entire Scottsdale Construction System team has been amazing before, during, and after we decided to purchase our first panel machine and join the Scottsdale family!
Before we purchased our panel machine [Scotpanel 7090G2] our company up here in North Dakota was, let’s just say, challenged every day, 7 days a week pushing to deliver for our customers. Now, after two months with our panel machine, we are leading our industry with quality, timeliness on project execution, and engineering buildings that exceed expectations of the oil and gas industry!
The products, support, encouragement, education that we received from Scottsdale family is the sole reason we have expedited our schedule and purchased our truss machine [Scottruss 6050G1] six months ahead of schedule.
Total Field & Environmental Services, LLC has become a manufacturing company because of Scottsdale Construction Systems! Our future is brighter today, our quality is better, and more importantly, our productivity has increased tenfold.
This is the best Christmas ever for me. I received a notification today that wheels are up and our truss machine is headed to the USA!

Our Steel Truss Manufacturing Automation
There is a reason TFES selected Scottruss 6050G1 as the next element of their steel framing operation expansion. Scottruss is a comprehensive steel truss manufacturing system encompassing roll forming, design, engineering, and CNC controls all inside of a single seamlessly integrated platform. Optimized specifically for truss behavior, Scottruss is available in G1 and G2 generations of 6050 and 6075 models, catering to roof and floor framing with virtually any truss geometry imaginable. Just as Scottsdale’s Scotpanel series of roll formers, Scottruss runs off our popular ScotSteel and ScotRF software.
Scottruss can be deployed in both the offsite construction context, as well as in a mobile factory for onsite truss fabrication. Some customers elect to deploy it for framing of industrial warehouse mezzanines, while many others deploy it residential construction of cold-formed steel homes panelizing entire floors. Other unique uses even involve replacement of long-span metal building tapered rafters.
All Scottruss shapes are ICC-ES certified, with the code approvals available for downloading from our website and covering United States, Australia, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, as well as many other world regions using International Building Code (IBC) and International Residential Code (IRC). Scottruss code approvals also include California Building Code, California Residential Code, Florida Building Code, Florida Residential Code, as well as High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) endorsement for uses in Florida.
We wish TFES all the success in their endeavor, and we will be there to support and help them to continue to thrive, prosper, and expand their business. We are honored to have been a part of the journey leading them to enter steel framing fabrication.
