Setting the Stage for Success
Bringing out the best in students, faculty, and staff begins with providing welcoming, vibrant and enduring spaces within well-designed, safe facilities and campuses.
This sets the stage for academic excellence and creative endeavors to flourish. Our full-service design, engineering, and environmental consulting team helps make that happen.
A Full Spectrum of Fresh Ideas and Personalized Solutions
We support master planning, expansion initiatives, renovations, and new construction projects. This includes buildings, roadways, parking lots, athletic fields, and infrastructure. For renovations, this could involve environmental services such as hazardous building materials investigation and abatement, structure demolition, oil storage tanks, and contaminated groundwater and soil management.
The needs of today’s administrators, faculty, and students keep evolving. We plan to be right there with personalized and cost effective solutions that will help them achieve their goals and successes.
