Hayter Engineering

What Hayter Engineering does

Hayter Engineering, Inc. is a privately held civil engineering consulting firm founded in 1957 and headquartered at 4445 SE Loop 286, Paris, Texas. The firm delivers practical infrastructure engineering services to municipalities, rural water utilities, educational entities, private developers, and industrial groups across Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Its work spans water and wastewater treatment and distribution, stormwater and floodplain management, transportation engineering, surveying and GIS mapping, parks and recreation, commercial/residential/industrial site development, educational and public facilities, permitting and planning, and infrastructure condition assessments.

The company operates as a professional services practice organized around twelve integrated service lines, executing projects through direct engagement and competitive public-sector bidding. Technology used in delivery is conventional for the industry, including GPS, total stations, LIDAR, AutoCAD, GIS, and computer modeling for water/wastewater systems, rather than proprietary platforms or software products. Revenue is generated through professional services fees on project-based engagements, with no disclosed pricing model and no publicly available financial figures. Notable repeat clients include the City of Paris, Paris ISD (including the $43.86 million High School Complex), the Lamar County Water Supply District, and the City of Bonham, with grant financing sourced from USDA Rural Development, the Texas Water Development Board, FEMA, TxDOT, and TDRA.

Hayter is a founder-owned and independently operated firm with no disclosed parent company, investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity. Staffing is reported in the 11-50 range, and recent leadership activity (Heather Yarbrough promoted to Senior AutoCAD Technician, Zachariah Smith promoted to Design Engineer II, Brandon Dusenberry passing the PE examination) signals continued internal talent development rather than acquisition-driven growth. The firm has positioned itself as a regional subconsultant on larger programs, notably teaming with AECOM and Blanton & Associates on the $35 million City of Paris Johnson Woods water and sewer rehabilitation.
