Provides project-based engineering and scientific consulting through Engineering and Other Scientific and Environmental and Health. Work spans biomechanics, civil and construction, data and electrical systems, materials and mechanical engineering, vehicle testing, chemical regulation and food safety, ecology, and human-health risk.
Multidisciplinary teams investigate accidents and product failures, test designs, assess safety and reliability, support product development and regulatory submissions, and supply technical analysis for disputes. Revenue comes mainly from professional fees, with equipment use and reimbursed outside expenses contributing less. Operations are centered in the United States, with offices in Europe and Asia.
Demand depends on engagement timing, litigation and regulatory activity, and retaining specialized staff; engagements are project-based and client-terminable, leaving little backlog.
