FIGG

What FIGG does

FIGG Bridge Group is a private US civil engineering firm founded in 1978 and headquartered in Tallahassee, Florida, specializing in precast concrete segmental bridge design and engineering services. The firm operates as Engineer of Record on bridge projects for state departments of transportation, toll road authorities, port authorities, and transit agencies, and has delivered more than 230 major bridges across 42 states and 6 countries with cumulative construction values exceeding $14 billion. Its core technical platform is precast concrete segmental construction using span-by-span and balanced cantilever methods, including signature technologies such as the Stay Cradle cable anchorage system and pioneering urban elevated bridges built with single-pier precast box girders within existing rights-of-way.

FIGG's product surface spans six bridge categories (Cable-Stayed, Long Span, Rail/Transit, Urban, Eco-Friendly, and Long Bridges Over Water), supported by end-to-end services including preliminary and final design engineering, Bridge Design Charettes community engagement, Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI), and Engineer-Procure-Construct (EPC) delivery. The firm vertically integrates precast manufacturing through its wholly owned subsidiary Cline Precast LLC. Project delivery occurs via competitive bidding, design-build, and CM/GC models, often in joint ventures with general contractors and complementary engineering firms such as Hardesty & Hanover.

Revenue is generated through professional engineering fees tied to design contracts, CEI engagements, and EPC general contracting work. Pricing is set through competitive bidding on public works projects, with no publicly disclosed pricing model. The customer base is concentrated entirely in government and public infrastructure owners, including flagship clients such as the Harris County Toll Road Authority, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, SEPTA, HART, CSX, Maine DOT, and the City of Virginia Beach. The firm has accumulated more than 420 design awards across its history, including two Presidential Design Awards, multiple ACEC National Engineering Excellence Grand Awards, and ARTBA sustainability recognition.

Broad incumbents

• AECOM: AECOM is a global infrastructure consulting firm with one of the world's largest bridge engineering practices. It is comparable to FIGG as a competitor on large-scale segmental and cable-stayed bridge projects, though AECOM's portfolio spans transportation, water, environment, and energy at massive scale.
• Stantec: Stantec is a global design and engineering consultancy with transportation infrastructure expertise, including bridge design and CE&I services for state DOTs. Comparable as a competitor for public-sector bridge contracts, though much larger and more diversified across infrastructure, water, and environmental verticals.
• HDR Inc. HDR is a large employee-owned engineering firm with a substantial bridge and transportation infrastructure practice. It is comparable to FIGG as a professional services peer competing for state DOT bridge design and CE&I work, but HDR is significantly larger and offers broader services across water, environment, and health.
• Michael Baker International: Michael Baker is a leading engineering consultancy with a major bridge and transportation practice. It is comparable to FIGG as a peer competing for public-sector bridge design, design-build, and CE&I contracts, though it also serves federal, water, and energy markets.
• Arup: Arup is a global engineering consultancy with an internationally recognized bridge and civil structures practice. Comparable as a peer for high-design-value, signature bridge projects where aesthetics and engineering excellence drive selection, though Arup's scope is significantly broader across all infrastructure sectors.
• HNTB Corporation: HNTB is an infrastructure solutions firm deeply focused on transportation, including bridge design, CE&I, and program management for state DOTs and toll authorities. Comparable to FIGG in serving the same public-sector bridge market, but with a much larger headcount and broader national practice.
• WSP USA: WSP USA (formed by the merger of Parsons Brinckerhoff and WSP) is a major transportation and infrastructure engineering consultancy with global bridge design capability. Comparable to FIGG for major bridge pursuits with public agencies, though with broader service offerings and far greater scale.
• Jacobs Engineering Group: Jacobs is a global engineering and professional services firm with significant transportation and bridges practice that competes with FIGG on major public-sector bridge and infrastructure projects. Jacobs serves a much broader market, but its bridge group is a direct competitor for DOT and toll authority work.

Direct peers

• T.Y. Lin International: T.Y. Lin International is a global infrastructure consulting firm with deep specialty in bridge engineering, including cable-stayed and segmental bridges. It is one of the closest direct peers to FIGG given similar scope of services, target clients (state DOTs, toll authorities), and comparable specialty engineering focus.
• Hardesty & Hanover: Hardesty & Hanover is a transportation engineering firm specializing in bridges, movable bridges, and highway infrastructure. It is a direct competitor and a documented JV partner with FIGG on the Sarah Mildred Long Bridge, indicating a similar scale and overlapping capability in bridge design for state DOTs and movable span structures.
