What England-Thims & Miller, Inc. does

England-Thims & Miller, Inc. (ETM) is a Florida-headquartered civil engineering and infrastructure consulting firm founded in 1977 in Jacksonville. The firm delivers a multi-disciplinary service portfolio spanning Construction Engineering & Inspection (CEI), Development Consulting & Entitlements, Site Design, Surveying & Mapping, Traffic & Transportation, Water & Utilities, Placemaking, and Geospatial Technologies. Services are organized around three customer segments — government and public-sector clients (municipalities, FDOT, JEA, JAXPORT), private developers (industrial, master-planned communities, mixed-use), and institutional owners (healthcare, education, sports) — and are delivered across three offices (Jacksonville HQ, Orlando opened 2022, Tampa opened March 2026) covering approximately 360–400 employees statewide.

ETM's technology layer combines a mature GIS practice (Esri Gold Partner with ArcGIS System Ready Specialty) with proprietary applications including DeepVUE geospatial analytics for land evaluation and a Digital Twin / IoT-integrated Enterprise Asset Management solution delivered in partnership with OpenGov. Surveying is supported by NavVis VLX3 mobile LiDAR and Harris H6 drone with Riegl VUX-1 LiDAR, and the firm holds FDOT 8.3 Photogrammetric Mapping prequalification. The firm has historically maintained the NPDES MS4 stormwater compliance database for the City of Jacksonville and FDOT District 2 since 1991, providing a long-running data incumbency on public-asset work.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services contracts (fixed-fee or cost-plus) negotiated with government and private-sector clients, with pricing not publicly disclosed. The firm remains privately held under the Mathews family, with no disclosed outside funding, M&A history, or institutional investors. Notable program engagements include JEA's 200+ mile pipe replacement across 36 Jacksonville neighborhoods, the $1.4 billion Jacksonville Jaguars Stadium of the Future, and the $500 million Gateway Jax Pearl Street District. The firm has received ENR Top Design Firms, ACEC National Recognition, APWA Project of the Year, and FTBA Partnering recognitions, alongside consecutive First Coast Best Places to Work awards.
