Toth and Associates, Inc.

What Toth and Associates, Inc. does

Toth and Associates, Inc. (TOTH) is a privately held, multidisciplinary consulting engineering firm founded in 2003 and headquartered in Springfield, Missouri. The firm provides integrated electrical, structural, and civil engineering services alongside land surveying, GIS/mapping, right-of-way acquisition, utility rate analysis, grant writing and administration, and drone-based infrastructure inspection. Its core customer base comprises electric cooperatives and rural utilities (served with substation design, transmission and distribution engineering, and cost-of-service studies), municipal governments (stormwater, water/wastewater, transportation, and FEMA safe room infrastructure), and K-12 and higher education institutions (building design, safe room additions, and site development). TOTH's technology stack includes 3D substation modeling with virtual flythrough visualization, GPS data collection and Esri-based GIS geodatabase development, and unmanned aerial systems equipped with LIDAR, thermal, and HD video sensors for power line and asset inspection. The firm employs 92 engineers—57 Professional Engineers, 21 Engineers-in-Training, and 14 additional engineers—within a total staff of 185+ spread across five regional offices in Missouri, Oregon (2), Montana, and Washington.

TOTH generates revenue on a project-based professional services model, with fees earned on a per-project basis through substation design, transmission/distribution line engineering, structural and civil design packages, surveying, GIS development, and grant administration. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales executed through regional offices, with new client acquisition routed through a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) request process. The firm relies heavily on long-term consultant-client relationships—some spanning 40+ years—and has secured over $300 million in federal grants for clients while designing more than 200 grant-funded projects, including 150+ FEMA tornado safe rooms. The customer mix is intentionally diversified across electric utilities, municipalities, and educational institutions to balance cyclical exposure. The firm was ranked 27th on EC&M's 2024 Top 40 Electrical Design Firms, recognized on the Springfield Business Journal's 2026 Dynamic Dozen, and has received three consecutive Best Places to Work in Engineering awards (2024, 2025, 2026).

In 2023, TOTH reported 33.9% revenue growth and added 44 net new employees, reaching 183 staff by year-end. The corporate ownership structure is concentrated among founder Adam Toth and a group of licensed Professional Engineer shareholders; the firm completed a generational transition step in March 2024 with the promotion of Luke Snow to Vice President and Shareholder. The firm has no disclosed external private equity, venture capital, or parent ownership, operating as an independent professional services partnership in all but legal form.

Broad incumbents

• Burns & McDonnell: Employee-owned engineering, construction, and consulting firm with a major electric utility practice (T&D, substations, generation) serving cooperatives and investor-owned utilities. Comparable because it competes for the same cooperative and municipal utility design work TOTH pursues, but at much larger scale and broader service mix.
• TRC Companies: Public engineering, environmental, and construction management firm with a significant utility infrastructure practice. Comparable because it competes for utility, municipal, and infrastructure engineering engagements, though at substantially larger scale and public-company breadth.
• HDR Inc. Large global engineering firm with major power, infrastructure, and federal practices. Comparable to TOTH's electric utility, civil, and structural work but operates at much greater scale and competes primarily for larger municipal, federal, and IOU engagements.
• Black & Veatch: Global engineering, procurement, and construction firm with extensive electric utility and water infrastructure practices. Comparable to TOTH on the electric T&D and water/wastewater civil engineering side, but at enterprise-scale with global reach.

Direct peers

• Ulteig Engineers: Mid-size engineering firm focused on electric utility, power, transportation, and renewables clients across the Midwest and beyond. Highly comparable to TOTH because it targets the same cooperative and municipal utility segment with substation, T&D, and civil engineering services of similar scope.
• Electrical Consultants Inc. (ECI): Specialist electrical engineering consultancy serving utilities with substation, transmission, distribution, and protection system design. Direct peer to TOTH's electrical engineering core, particularly for cooperative and municipal utility clients requiring 3D substation and T&D design.
• POWER Engineering Services: Engineering and EPC firm focused on power generation, substations, and grid infrastructure for utilities and industrial clients. Comparable to TOTH's utility-side electrical engineering and substation design work, though broader in generation scope.
• Stanley Consultants: Mid-size engineering consulting firm providing power, civil, structural, and surveying services to utilities, municipalities, and federal clients. Highly comparable to TOTH's multidisciplinary engineering-plus-surveying platform and similar cooperative/municipal target segments.
• Olsson: Midwest-based engineering firm providing civil, structural, electrical, and environmental services to municipalities, schools, and utilities. Comparable to TOTH's Midwest base, K-12 safe room work, municipal infrastructure, and similar mid-size multidisciplinary model.
• GDS Associates: Consulting firm focused on electric utility rate design, cost-of-service studies, regulatory, and engineering services for electric cooperatives and municipal utilities. Direct peer to TOTH's Utility Rate Analysis practice serving the same cooperative client base.
