Fern's headquarters, located on Cape Cod in Pocasset, Massachusetts, USA, is a fully equipped engineering facility with 4000 sq. ft. of office space and an additional 6000 sq. ft. of space used for storage of documents, gas turbine spare parts, and test equipment.

In addition to numerous state-of-the-art personal computers, Fern has three CAD stations equipped with AutoCAD™, and has licensed copies of ANSYS™ for finite element and CFD analysis, and GATE/Cycle™ for gas turbine and combined cycle power plant performance design calculations. Fern also has licensed copies of Rockwell Automation's PanelBuilder32™ and RSLogix 500™ for building Allen-Bradley programmable logic control (PLC) systems, as well as the latest version of Compaq Visual Fortran which is used in the programming of some of our performance monitoring software.

Fern has an extensive collection of literature related to gas turbines and HRSGs including technical journals and papers, OEM installation, operation & maintenance manuals and technical bulletins, OEM technical drawings, and design code books. Fern maintains accounts with the US federal government's National Technical Information Service and the Linda Hall Library which facilitates delivery of virtually any technical article or report within a matter of days, if not hours.
