Terracon Acquires PMI of Arkansas

Clients in the South and Southeastern U.S. to benefit from expanded services and resources

OLATHE, Kan. – Terracon, an employee-owned firm with a long history of providing excellence in engineering consulting services, is pleased to announce it has acquired Pollution Management Inc. (PMI), an engineering and environmental services firm with locations in Little Rock and Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Since its founding in 1988, PMI has provided a range of engineering, environmental and field services to clients. The firm’s team is comprised of professional engineers and geologists, environmental scientists, and construction/remediation specialists who work together to provide turnkey projects throughout Arkansas and the surrounding states.

“PMI enhances and strengthens our engineering and consulting practice in Arkansas and brings in- house construction capabilities that support our design services,” said Gayle Packer, Terracon chair, president, and CEO. “We are pleased to welcome them to Terracon as we grow and continually evolve how we help solve our clients’ challenges.”

PMI’s 37 employees will immediately become part of Terracon. The firm will continue to operate locally as Pollution Management Inc., A Terracon Company, and the transition will be seamless for clients. The new acquisition is supported by Terracon’s existing operations in Little Rock and Rogers, Arkansas; Springfield and Joplin, Missouri; and Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Oklahoma.

“By joining Terracon, our clients will continue to benefit from the expertise and creative solutions we have provided for over 34 years, while also enjoying expanded access to Terracon’s national resources and multidiscipline services,” said Richard Davis, president, PMI.

“PMI’s team members will be a great fit in Terracon’s team, and will continue to grow their careers, and enhance client relationships, and add services for our clients,” said Doug Ford, vice president, PMI.

PMI is Terracon’s second acquisition in 2023, and its 19^th acquisition since the beginning of 2017.

The transaction was brokered by Generational Equity of Dallas, Texas. “This strategic union combines the expertise and resources of two great companies,” said Julio Dominguez, managing director, M&A, Generational Equity. “Terracon and PMI are poised to redefine possibilities and deliver unparalleled value to their clients. Generational Equity is proud to have helped PMI find a home and partnership with Terracon.”
