Our Markets
Government
Problems Solved, Goals Achieved
In the public sector, having a results-driven partner skilled at navigating complex issues is critical to project success. We continuously serve hundreds of public entities across the northeastern United States, including small towns, large cities, regional and state government agencies. As we serve, we get to know each community better. We learn by listening, and asking right questions. We thoughtfully apply our knowledge to craft effective solutions for a myriad of public infrastructure and environmental challenges.
All in One Place
Tighe & Bond’s comprehensive, multi-service offerings provide state and local government clients seamless and painless one-stop shopping. Since projects typically require more than one service specialty, life gets a whole lot easier for clients when a firm has all of these integrated into its practice. This is especially true when personalized service and a passion for excellence back these basics.
Our consulting engineers, environmental scientists, planners, and designers are fully versed in public procurement procedures, and know how to accomplish construction projects from concept to completion. This includes working closely with countless cities and towns to develop long-term solutions that are appropriate to serving the unique needs, budgets and cultures of those communities.
