One of the hardest things to explain to others is the multitude of services we provide. I’ve been here for nearly three years and at least once a week I say “we do that?”. Since my job is marketing, it’s imperative to understand what we do so that I can tell others about it. So the marketing department got together and brainstormed how we could better tell the public about our work. We realized that a classic marketing approach was needed here – rebranding.
We realized that our services were a little technical sounding and a little outdated. We’ve taken a bit of creative license here, but we hope that you find this easy to understand. So, as of today, we’d like to introduce you to our new departments:
Old Title | New Title |
Brownfields Redevelopment | Turning Trash into Treasure |
Building Demolition | The Homewreckers |
Construction Management | Adult Legos |
Dam Engineering | Plug and Chug |
Ecological and Wetland Services | Swamp Things |
Electrical Engineering | Shock Jocks |
Energy Management Consulting | Do You Think I’m Made of Money??? (this one is dedicated to all our fathers) |
Habitat Restoration | Habitat for Non-humanity |
Highway Design | Vrrrrooooommmm |
Historic Structures | Ghost Busters |
Indoor Air Quality Consulting | Odor Eaters |
Integrated Redevelopment | Integrated Redevelopment (even thesaurus.com couldn’t help us with this one) |
Land Surveying | Measure Twice, Don’t Cut at All |
Mechanical Engineering | The Heat is On (That’s the Plan, Anyway) |
Petroleum Storage and Distribution | ![]() |
Solid Waste Management | Pooper Scoopers |
And if you believe this – we’ve got a bridge we’d like to sell you.
And design – we can do that too.
Happy April Fools’ Day!
