Strategic Merge Girard Engineering has merged with Salas O’Brien, expanding scale and service reach in mechanical, plumbing, and electrical engineering for commercial, multi-family, educational, and civic sectors. This creates cross-sell opportunities into Salas O’Brien’s broader project ecosystem and client base.

Regional Growth Operating from the Washington, DC metropolitan area with a modest team size (11-50 employees), there is potential to leverage Salas O’Brien’s national network to pursue larger integrated design-build projects and federal or government-related opportunities.

Digital Maturity Tech stack includes Procore and analytics platforms, suggesting readiness for project management collaboration and BIM-enabled design work. This enables targeting mid to large-scale projects that prioritize digital workflow efficiency and integrated delivery.

Funding Leverage Reported revenue range of 10M-25M indicates a solid mid-market footprint with room to upsell additional MEP, fire protection, and technology design services across integrated Salas O’Brien engagements.

Partnership Strength Recent high-profile acquisitions and collaborations by Salas O’Brien (e.g., TechSource, Lighting Design Alliance, BWK Engineering) signal a growth trajectory and a need for ongoing synergistic engineering, architecture, and specialty design capabilities to win larger, multi-discipline bids.
