About BG

About BG

Overview

Traditionally, engineers and architects have different priorities and perspectives. Although they frequently work together, conflicting goals can lead to lapses in communication and coordination, negatively affecting your project. But at BG Consultants, we do things a little differently.

Our company started 50 years ago. We opened our doors with three employees — an engineer, a surveyor, and an architect — who envisioned a collaborative firm of forward-thinking professionals. Having each grown up on a farm, they had great respect for the land and environment and understood the value of hard work and dedication. Overall, they wanted to make a positive difference in local communities.

As the firm grew, we hired more engineers, more architects, and developed studios specializing in different project types. Today, BG Consultants is a mid-sized design firm with over 90 professionals and support staff. We provide services in architecture; civil engineering; structural engineering; mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering; planning; and surveying. Our people are experts in their fields, but above all, they’re focused on our clients.

Our mission is to provide client-focused service through integrated design solutions. Put simply: We see ourselves as a partner, working with you to create a design that resonates with your vision. 

Why Choose BG

The water you use, the roads you drive, the spaces where you live and work — all have a significant impact on your life. At BG Consultants, we want you to get the most out of your surrounding environment. That’s why we want to partner with you to create design solutions that reflect a balance of technical knowledge and an understanding of human behavior. And with our comprehensive design approach, we’ll help you turn your vision into reality.

Collaborative

We believe that great design is founded upon developing a collaborative relationship with our clients, listening to your concerns and expectations, and designing solutions tailored to your community’s needs. Continuous communication and responsive service allow us to involve you every step of the way. We pride ourselves on our legacy of repeat clients and believe it showcases our focus on successfully completing projects according to your needs. We never want to simply complete a job; we aim to create long-term client satisfaction.

Knowledgeable

As a regional mid-sized firm, we have in-house professionals who serve as technical experts in their fields. Because BG has fostered an environment of mentoring and shared resources across all four of our offices, our collective knowledge is shared and cultivated among every member of our team. We design with consideration to the regional context, are knowledgeable about local methods and regulations, and use creative problem solving as issues arise. With a regional portfolio extending across multiple industries, we have the in-house resources to meet the most diverse project needs.
