Patel, Greene & Associates

What Patel, Greene & Associates does

Patel, Greene & Associates (PGA) is a privately held civil engineering consulting firm that provides multi-disciplinary transportation infrastructure design services to public-sector clients, primarily state departments of transportation (FDOT, TDOT), county governments, and municipalities across Florida and Tennessee. Founded around 2000 by co-founders Hiren Patel, PE (President) and Gordon Greene, PE (Executive Vice President), both former PBS&J drainage engineers, the firm has grown to 101–250 employees operating from eight offices (Temple Terrace HQ, Tampa/Carrollwood, Orlando, Bartow, Sarasota, Plantation, Tallahassee, and Knoxville). The firm offers 13 interconnected service lines including roadway, drainage, structures, traffic and ITS, planning, GIS, PD&E, environmental, landscape architecture, CEI, facilities preservation, civil site, and design development. PGA pioneered the first 3D drainage model signed and sealed as a legal document in Florida and the first GRS pedestrian bridge in the state, signaling deep technical capability in hydrologic/hydraulic design and innovative structural methods.

The firm's core technology stack centers on Bentley's civil engineering platform, including OpenRoads Designer (ORD), MicroStation Connect Edition, OpenBridge Modeler/Designer, OpenFlows StormCAD, and the FDOTConnect workspace, supplemented by ICPR 4 for drainage modeling and ArcGIS for spatial analysis. PGA's Design Development group trains both internal staff and external consultants on FDOTConnect/ORD, with team members serving as Bentley-selected trainers. Revenue is generated entirely through professional services fees from project-based contracts, continuing services agreements, and multi-year General Engineering Consultant (GEC) contracts, most notably with FDOT District One and District Seven. The firm holds TDOT Unlimited Qualification across 17 disciplines, FDOT prequalifications, and pursues work through Letters of Response, shortlisting presentations, and design-build best-value competitions. Projects are staffed across the eight-office network with notable technical firsts in 3D drainage delivery, GRS bridge construction, and Low Impact Design stormwater approaches. PGA's go-to-market relies on direct enterprise field sales into government agencies, supported by a 10-person marketing team, an owned podcast (Breaking the ICE), active social channels, the STEP Ahead educational hub, and aggressive community involvement (#PGAGivesBack).

The company remains wholly owned and controlled by its co-founders with no institutional or private equity backing disclosed. It has been recognized as an ENR Top 500 Design Firm, named #1 Best Places to Work in Tampa Bay (Extra Large Firm, 2025), and #1 Best Firm to Work For by Zweig Group.
