Colliers Engineering & Design
Colliers Engineering & Design is a multidiscipline engineering, architecture, and consulting firm working for private developers and public agencies. Its work spans site and municipal engineering, survey and geospatial, geotechnical and environmental, transportation, structural, and building systems.
Services are delivered in house through a single network of offices, so one project can draw on several disciplines without outside subconsultants. Practice groups include architecture and design, building engineering systems, energy and sustainability, engineering and infrastructure, geotechnical and environmental, landscape architecture, planning and urban design, program and project management, right-of-way and land services, subsurface utility engineering, survey and geospatial, and telecommunications and site acquisition.
The survey and geospatial group combines aerial, ground, and subsurface measurement, including land survey, hydrographic survey, LiDAR, and unmanned aerial systems. The firm's awards page lists ENR Top 500 Design Firms at rank 32, ENR Top 100 Pure Designers at rank 23, and Zweig Group Best Firm to Work For at rank 30. It has announced an agreement to partner with Frankfurt-Short-Bruza Associates, P.C. (FSB), an architecture, engineering and design firm, expanding its aviation and mission work.
Fees are project based and are not published. The site notes that it represents services and projects from Colliers Engineering & Design and its affiliates, independent contractors, and business partners, so confirm which entity would hold your contract and which office would run the work.
Best for
Developers and public agencies that need civil, survey, geotechnical, and traffic work from one firm under one contract. An owner who needs only a boundary or ALTA survey will usually find a local surveyor cheaper.
