Acquisition Synergy Manhard Consulting has been acquired by Atwell, expanding nationwide capabilities in land development and energy markets. This signals potential cross-sell opportunities for Atwell and Manhard’s combined client base in civil engineering, surveying, and land planning services.

Expansion Footprint Recent expansion to Denver and the acquisition forming a national platform suggest growth in geographic coverage. Sales teams can target real estate development, infrastructure projects, and energy sector opportunities across broader regions.

Energy Market Focus With Atwell’s emphasis on power, energy, oil and gas, there is likely increased demand for civil engineering and land development services in energy corridors, site development for facilities, and permitting expertise.

Leadership Transition Executive changes, including the departure of the former president post-acquisition, indicate potential shifts in strategic priorities and relationship management. Proactive engagement with leadership teams could surface renewal opportunities and key account expansions.

Industry Recognition Manhard’s recognition as a Top 500 Design Firm (2024) and ongoing project activity present credibility for pursuing larger, multi-office projects and competitive bids in civil engineering, surveying, and land planning with municipal and developer clients.
