CIVIL ENGINEERING
A community is never static. Its infrastructure evolves to meet challenges of change and growth. We work in partnership with the people in government who are responsible for anticipating and accommodating the physical requirements of vibrant communities. We design for immediate impact and manage for long-term relevance.
Grounded in the present, applying the best practices of our profession, we look to the future. Our infrastructural engineering solutions—roads, bridges, tunnels, water and sewage systems, drainage systems, levees, and coastal restoration—work now and will continue to function efficiently for the communities they support. Communities like your own.
Your infrastructural and environmental projects are critical to your community’s life and potential. From roadway design and traffic alignment to water and wastewater treatment engineering to storm protection and disaster response, we will earn your trust and justify your confidence as your future takes shape.
program management
Your work would be simpler if you could take on the challenges one at a time. But at any given moment, you have a number of projects in different stages of development. Each project has its own demands. All require smart, constant and consistent supervision from concept through completion: nothing less than total control.
Very few engineering firms in the Gulf South have the intelligence, experience, technology and focused vision to manage diverse projects with singular success. We are not only one of the few. We are one of the best. Our program managers take charge and take responsibility. They drive schedules, meet budgets, and ensure quality throughout the process.
Fluid development and activity among multiple projects can impact timelines and costs. We anticipate issues, manage risk and contingency with proven systems, and give you a sound basis for making serious decisions. At the end of the day, you leave the office knowing that every aspect of every project is firmly in hand.
Construction Management
Infrastructure is the foundation of your community, supporting the shared life of the families and businesses you serve. Every construction project is a commitment to the future. There’s no room for compromise: the only way to get it done is to do it right. We can make a difference in the way your projects are managed to completion.
As managing engineers, we know the demands of construction from start to finish. We know how to make sure things happen on time and to your specifications. We’ll help you evaluate submittals and safety plans, define team structure, identify critical project activities, and develop communication protocols.
When you’ve awarded contracts, we’ll go on-site and on the job. We’ll inspect and test materials from receipt through installation. We’ll monitor budgets and schedules, safety practices and interdisciplinary coordination. We’ll document your project to help prevent or mitigate disputes and claims. The end result will be the right result.
disaster management
Here in the Gulf South, we enjoy an exceptional quality of life that is always threatened by exceptional events. You plan for hurricanes and other natural disasters, preparing your community to respond and recover. You work with FEMA. We can help. With our disaster and grant management services, your efforts can be more effective.
In the wake of disaster, debris removal is the first step toward recovery. Our plans, protocols and resources are in place and ready to go well before they are needed. We take charge of the processes of identifying, collecting, removing and disposing of the trees, trash and personal property that litter your community after a storm.
We’ve worked through crisis situations (including every major hurricane from Katrina to Ida) and have helped local governments maximize FEMA reimbursements and manage recovery funds totaling hundreds of millions of dollars. We make sure those dollars make a difference, clearing the way for you to bring people home . . . and bring your community back to life.
surveying
The cornerstone to any successful engineering design, construction, or land development project is a complete and accurate survey.
From the beginning of your project our surveyors set the groundwork. Utilizing advanced methods and technological tools we will start your project off in the right direction. We’ll take the measurements, analyze the data, map the terrain and present you a working site plan for applications ranging from construction to corridor planning to coastal restoration.
Our goal is to provide you with accurate and reliable survey information to move your enterprise forward.
