Acquisition impact CHI Engineering was acquired by NV5 Global in 2018 for $55M, indicating a potential alignment with NV5’s broader EPC and consulting services and signaling possible cross-sell opportunities in LNG, LPG, and NG sectors.

LNG and related markets Specialization in LNG, LPG, and natural gas facilities suggests opportunities to offer upgrades, efficiency improvements, and maintenance contracts for midstream and downstream players expanding or modernizing gas infrastructure.

Project lifecycle Strong emphasis on engineering, procurement, construction, plant startup, operations, and maintenance positions CHI to offer end-to-end lifecycle services, enabling bundled EPC/OCM proposals to clients seeking simplified project delivery.

Medium-sized footprint With 51–200 employees and revenue in the $50–100 million range, CHI targets mid-market projects where personalized client attention and fast decision cycles can be leveraged against larger, more cumbersome firms.

Digital engagement Current tech stack includes CAD, WordPress and marketing analytics tools, indicating opportunities to propose modernization of design workflows, BIM-enabled EPC solutions, and data-driven project performance dashboards for clients.
