Provides professional, technical, and consulting services to utilities, public agencies, and private industry through the Energy and Engineering and Consulting reportable segments. Energy covers efficiency programs, demand reduction, grid optimization, design engineering, AI data center power solutions, turnkey facility projects, software, and data analytics.
Engineering and Consulting carries the municipal roots: building and safety, city engineering, code enforcement, development review, disaster recovery, planning, surveying, construction management, water resources, public finance, district administration, and federal compliance. Operations are concentrated in the United States, with California, New York, and Nevada the largest client geographies in the latest context.
Execution depends on winning and renewing utility and public-sector contracts, managing fixed-price and unit-based work, and retaining technical staff. Most contracts can be terminated for convenience after notice or reimbursement of unbilled work.
