Expanded capabilities CGA has recently expanded its service breadth by merging with Wertzberger Architects, adding architectural services to its existing civil engineering and surveying offerings. This presents a cross-sell opportunity to clients seeking integrated design solutions from a single firm.

Regional footprint With multiple offices across central Iowa (Ackley, Cedar Falls, Des Moines, Marshalltown) and a history dating to 1959, CGA has an established local presence that can leverage relationships with municipal and private sector clients for repeat engineering, surveying, and planning engagements.

Public sector focus CGA’s portfolio includes construction administration, stormwater management, traffic and transportation planning, water and wastewater system design, and right of way services, indicating strong alignment with municipal and utility projects that often require ongoing consulting and design work.

Digital maturity Adoption of a tech stack including Deltek Ajera, cloud-based tools, web technologies (Vue.js, PHP), and security/SEO platforms (Cloudflare, reCAPTCHA, Google Search Console) suggests readiness for efficiency solutions, client portals, and data-driven proposals to improve win rates.

Growth signals Revenue in the range of 10–25 million and notable executive hiring (AICP certification for a key professional) alongside geographic and service expansion indicate a trajectory of scaling services and pursuing larger, multi-disciplinary projects that could benefit from strategic partnerships and targeted outreach.
