MDA Engineering

What MDA Engineering does

MDA Engineering, Inc. is a private, multi-disciplinary engineering consulting firm founded in 1976 and headquartered in Maumee, Ohio, serving government, municipal, commercial, industrial, healthcare, and institutional clients across the Midwest region. The firm delivers professional engineering services across 13 disciplines, including architecture and interior design, civil engineering, mechanical/electrical/structural engineering, transportation engineering, water/wastewater engineering, environmental health and safety, environmental investigation and remediation, brownfield/due diligence/ecological services, construction management, construction/field engineering, parking planning/design/restoration, survey/geospatial/GIS, and UAS (drone) services.

The firm's core technology is its integrated multidisciplinary engineering practice — there is no proprietary software platform, API, or product suite; all offerings are delivered as customized consulting engagements staffed by licensed engineers, architects, surveyors, and environmental specialists. Underlying technical components include GIS-based geospatial mapping, UAS-based aerial data capture, and conventional engineering design tools applied across infrastructure, building systems, environmental compliance, and transportation projects.

MDA Engineering operates a project-based, quote-driven revenue model with no publicly disclosed pricing, as each engagement is scoped to client-specific requirements. The firm has historically targeted three vertical segments — government and municipal clients, commercial and industrial enterprises, and healthcare and institutional clients — through direct professional-services delivery and regional client relationships. As of the source data, MDA Engineering has merged with Fishbeck, with the combined entity now operating under the Fishbeck brand and MDA's website redirecting visitors to fishbeck.com.

Direct peers

• Fishbeck: Acquirer of MDA Engineering and now the operating brand for the combined firm. Directly comparable as a Midwest-based multidisciplinary engineering, architecture, and environmental consulting firm serving the same government, commercial, and institutional clients with overlapping service lines.
• DLZ Corporation: Midwest-based engineering, architecture, and surveying firm offering civil, transportation, environmental, water, and construction management services. Closely comparable to MDA in service mix and regional government/institutional client base.
• OHM Advisors: Midwest architecture, engineering, and planning firm with strong municipal and public-sector focus, offering civil, water/wastewater, transportation, environmental, and surveying services very similar to MDA's portfolio.
• Spicer Group: Midwest engineering, surveying, and architecture firm providing civil, water/wastewater, environmental, transportation, and GIS services to municipal and institutional clients; comparable regional competitor with similar multidisciplinary depth.
• Wightman: Michigan-based engineering, architecture, and surveying firm serving municipalities with civil, water/wastewater, environmental, and GIS offerings that overlap directly with MDA's core practice areas.
• Woolpert: U.S. architecture, engineering, geospatial (GIS, lidar, UAS), and consulting firm with strong municipal and federal practices. Closely comparable on the surveying/geospatial/UAS services that differentiate MDA, with overlapping public-sector client base.

Broad incumbents

• TRC Companies: National engineering and consulting firm with deep environmental, infrastructure, and energy practices. Broad incumbent competing for the same municipal and brownfield remediation work MDA performs, but at significantly greater scale and geographic reach.
• AECOM: Global engineering and infrastructure services firm with overlapping civil, environmental, transportation, and water capabilities. Broad incumbent that defines the upper end of the competitive landscape MDA encounters on large public-sector pursuits.
• Jacobs Solutions: Large global consulting and engineering firm delivering civil, environmental, water, and transportation services. Represents the scale and capability ceiling that MDA, even via Fishbeck, must compete against for marquee infrastructure programs.

Regional players

• Manhard Consulting: Engineering and surveying firm with strong Midwest presence offering civil, water, environmental, and land development services. Comparable in scale and service mix to MDA, primarily serving different sub-regions of the Midwest.
