In October 2011, Winzler &
Kelly merged with GHD, one of the world’s leading engineering,
architecture and environmental consulting companies, enhancing
its ability to provide unique, client-focused
solutions.
Winzler & Kelly joins GHD’s network of
more than 6500 practitioners serving clients from 100+ offices
worldwide in the global markets of water, energy and resources,
environment, property and buildings, and transportation. GHD’s
strong client-centered culture and collaborative approach mesh well
with Winzler & Kelly’s reputation for providing sustainable,
innovative services to clients for more than 60 years.
At the time of the merger with GHD, Winzler
& Kelly was a multi-disciplinary professional services firm
providing engineering, environmental, construction management, and
sustainable design services to clients in diverse markets that
perfectly complemented GHD’s. Winzler & Kelly was known for
providing clients with smart, contextual solutions by leveraging
the deep technical knowledge of more than 300 employees. While
operating from offices throughout California, Oregon and the
Pacific, Winzler & Kelly was distinguished as one of the best
engineering firms to work for by various local and national
industry media outlets.
Iver Skavdal, former CEO of Winzler &
Kelly says, “This merger benefits both our firms. It allows us to
offer increased innovation and efficiency to our clients and more
professional development opportunities to our staff through a
network of global resources, while also strengthening GHD’s
offering in the Americas. We look forward to remaining a local
business while providing a global network of resources to our
clients and the communities we serve.”
Richard Wankmuller, GHD’s General Manager of
the Americas says, “With Winzler & Kelly’s great experience and
capabilities comes great people. Their leadership team includes
some of the best leaders I have worked with throughout the world
and they augment the fantastic leadership we already have in place
at GHD. The firm has been perennially recognized for excellence and
innovation, most recently for the Middle Harbor Restoration project
at the Port of Oakland and the City of Santa Rosa’s sustainably
designed Utilities Field Office campus. I am confident that all of
our clients can look forward to high quality local service, with
the support of global technical resources available through GHD’s
highly collaborative network of talented people.”
