What Renaissance Infrastructure Consulting does

Renaissance Infrastructure Consulting (RIC) is a 100% employee-owned civil engineering, land surveying, landscape architecture, and construction phase services firm headquartered in Lenexa, Kansas, founded in 2010. The company operates from offices in Lenexa KS, Riverside MO, Kansas City MO, Kansas City KS, and Denver CO, and has completed more than 4,000 projects across 23 U.S. states since inception. Its service portfolio spans Site/Civil Development, Land Surveying (including 3D laser scanning with Leica scanners), Landscape Architecture, Construction Phase Services, Water Resources, Stormwater Management, Water/Wastewater, Transportation, Traffic Engineering, and Commercial Drone Services (UAS/UAV with aerial mapping, LiDAR, and thermal/infrared inspection capabilities).

RIC's underlying technology stack is conventional for a mid-market AE firm: survey-grade GNSS receivers, robotic total stations, terrestrial laser scanners, and software platforms including Carlson Survey, AutoCAD, MicroStation, and Leica Cyclone, supplemented by an in-house commercial drone program. The firm holds LEED AP certified professionals on staff and maintains Federal Small Business status (DUNS 961719544, Cage Code 5XD13) with NAICS codes across surveying, civil engineering, and landscape architecture, qualifying it as a pre-approved federal subconsultant on vehicles such as the USACE Kansas City District Civil Works IDIQ.

The business model is professional services on a project-by-project basis: services are delivered direct-to-client under master service agreements, engineering services agreements, and project-specific contracts, with quote-based pricing tied to scope and complexity. Customer segments are diversified across industrial developers (NorthPoint Development, Scannell Properties), Class I railroads (BNSF, Kansas City Southern), municipalities (City of Shawnee, Johnson County), federal agencies (USACE, FEMA), healthcare systems (AdventHealth), and education clients. GTM is sales-led, relationship-driven, and dependent on repeat engagement and procurement-based selection. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.
