KAS

What KAS does

KAS is a privately held, Woman-owned professional services firm founded in 2004 that provides environmental management, civil and environmental engineering, asbestos management, and industrial hygiene consulting. Headquartered in Williston, Vermont with a regional office in Plattsburgh, New York, the firm serves clients across Northern New York and New England, including individuals, financial institutions, insurance companies, municipalities, private developers, and corporations ranging from small businesses to large multinationals.

The firm's offering is organized around eight integrated practice areas: environmental assessments and transaction due diligence (Phase I and Phase II per ASTM E1527 and E1903), Brownfields redevelopment support, contaminated site management and remediation (soil vapor extraction, air sparging, in-situ chemical oxidation, free product recovery), NEPA environmental reviews for HUD/USDA-funded projects, asbestos consulting in NY/VT/NH, industrial hygiene (health and safety training, air quality monitoring, mold testing, confined space evaluation), civil engineering (site design, transportation, stormwater, water/wastewater systems, slope stabilization, permitting), and in-house drilling services. Technical differentiators include a Geoprobe 6011 DT drilling rig licensed in VT/NH/NY/MA, Dual Tube 2.25" and Macro-Core MC5 soil coring systems, a Heavy-Duty Hydra-cell D10 positive displacement pump, and a QA/QC program with a dedicated Quality Assurance Officer and EPA-compliant QAPPs. Staff credentials include Certified Asbestos Inspectors/Project Designers/Management Planners, licensed Mold Inspectors, OSHA HAZWOPER-trained scientists, and six ASTM-trained Environmental Professionals.

KAS generates revenue through project-based professional consulting engagements with custom scoping for each client. Go-to-market is direct and sales-led, with no intermediary or channel partner distribution. Marketing is minimal, limited to a company website and a Facebook page. The firm has no public funding events, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed financial figures. Its only recorded inorganic action is the 2009 acquisition of ESPC civil and environmental engineering, which established the firm's current civil engineering capability.
