| Stantec to acquire USKH Inc. North American design firm Stantec will grow its presence in the Alaskan and Pacific Northwest markets by acquiring USKH Inc.. Headquartered in Anchorage, AK, USKH is a 130-person multidiscipline design firm founded in 1972, with offices in Alaska, Washington and Montana, including Fairbanks, Juneau, Wasilla, Spokane, Walla Walla, Ferndale and Billings. This transaction is expected to close in June. Serving a diverse base of public and private clients, USKH provides fully-integrated architectural, landscape architecture, engineering, environmental, planning, and surveying services. Among the firm's community-driven design projects are the Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge in Alaska's Denali National Park, the Eielson AFB Fitness Center, and the City of Plummer Wastewater Treatment Plant in Idaho. USKH's regional clients include the State of Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, Municipality of Anchorage, Pangborn Memorial Airport, City of Kodiak, University of Alaska-Fairbanks, Kenai Peninsula Borough, and Fairbanks Gold Mining, Inc., among many others. Stantec currently has nearly 6,000 employees working across 140 offices in the United States. The acquisition of USKH, combined with Stantec's intended acquisition of Dallas, Texas-based SHW Group, announced yesterday, represents the addition of more than 400 people to the firm's US operations. write your comments about the article :: © 2014 Construction News :: home page |
