Eastside Consultants

What Eastside Consultants does

Eastside Consultants, Inc. is a privately held land surveying and civil engineering consulting firm headquartered in Issaquah, Washington, founded in 1977. The firm provides professional surveying and civil engineering services to clients across Washington and Oregon, with a stated staff of 11–50 employees. Its leadership comprises three principals — Robert J. Bogdon, Ronald S. Frederiksen, and Steven W. Kitz — whose combined tenure anchors the firm's long-standing client relationships.

The company's service offering centers on cadastral surveying, boundary retracement, and civil engineering consulting, supported by specialized credentials such as the Bureau of Land Management advanced cadastral course. It serves a mixed client base including federal agencies (notably the U.S. Forest Service), enterprise landowners, and small-to-mid residential property owners, and has participated in landmark regional initiatives such as the Washington Centennial Corner Monumentation Project.

Eastside Consultants operates as a project-based professional services firm, generating revenue through fee-for-service engagements rather than product or subscription revenue. Distribution is direct via the firm's Issaquah office and through an online payment portal that supports client invoicing. The business model is typical of small regional partnerships: limited external capital, partner-led client delivery, and reliance on repeat engagements and reputational standing built over 45+ years.
