Today"s ever changing technology requires flexibility in the collection of topographic surveys. Topographic surveys involve the data collection of three dimensional data and subsequent generation of design files, triangle files, and digital terrain models. These services can be collected via conventional data collection with total stations and data collectors, or via real-time kinematic GPS surveys.

Boundary or property surveys involve the reestablishment of existing right-of-way, easement and property lines under the direction of a licensed Land Surveyor and are a requirement for all types of land development, transportation projects, and building projects.

The development of travel demand forecasts is a vital step in evaluating the future needs and demands of a transportation facility such as the number of lanes, lane configurations, type of interchange and potential for multimodal facilities and connections. Travel demand forecasts can help in the early identification of major cost implications and also factor into environmental analysis.

Regulatory permitting can be a challenge to clients on many levels and often provides a stumbling block to projects if not considered early in the project development process. Researching and identifying federal, state and local regulatory permit requirements is essential for successful implementation of projects. Making the wrong assumptions with respect to permitting requirements often results in regulatory disputes and schedule setbacks.

Building Commissioning is a systematic and documented process of ensuring that the owner"s operational needs are met, building systems perform efficiently, and building operators are properly trained. A seemingly simple concept, yet often left out in the hectic rush to complete projects, resulting in years of compounding operational and maintenance inefficiencies and extra costs.  Deficiencies such as design flaws, construction defects, malfunctioning equipment, and deferred maintenance have a host of ramifications, ranging from equipment failure, to compromised indoor air quality and comfort, to unnecessarily elevated energy use or under-performance of energy-efficiency strategies.
