Direct peers

• Robinson Engineering, Ltd. Mid-size civil engineering and surveying firm based in Frankfort, IL, focused on municipal and transportation clients across the Midwest. Direct peer given DJ&A and Robinson just merged in June 2026 to form a nationwide engineering platform; comparable scale, services, and federal/IDIQ contracting orientation.
• Kleinfelder: Engineering, environmental, and scientific consulting firm of comparable size serving federal, transportation, water, and energy clients across the US. Closely comparable in service mix (survey/geospatial, environmental, civil/structural) and heavy federal contracting orientation; one of the most relevant US-based peer comps at DJ&A's stage.
• Tetra Tech: Global consulting and engineering firm with deep environmental, water, and federal land management practices. Highly comparable to DJ&A on the environmental, water, and federal contracting dimensions, though significantly larger and publicly traded; serves as the upper-end growth aspiration peer.
• TRC Companies: Engineering, environmental, and construction management consulting firm serving utilities, transportation, and federal clients. Comparable mid-market scale and federal/state contracting mix; PE-backed growth trajectory similar to DJ&A's post-merger profile.
• VHB: Employee-owned engineering, planning, and environmental firm focused on transportation, land use, and federal/state infrastructure across the eastern US. Comparable multidisciplinary service portfolio and federal transportation contracting emphasis; useful peer for benchmarking employee-ownership-to-PE transition.
• HDR, Inc. Employee-owned engineering, architecture, and environmental firm with major federal transportation and water practices. Highly comparable on transportation design, water/wastewater, and federal IDIQ contract execution; a relevant benchmark for technical depth and contract ceiling sizes.
• Brown and Caldwell: Environmental engineering and water-focused consulting firm serving municipalities and federal agencies. Comparable in environmental and water resources consulting, with similar federal/municipal client mix and engineering-only (no construction) business model.
• WEST Consultants, Inc. Specialized water resources engineering firm headquartered in San Diego with eight offices across AZ, CA, OR, TX, and WA. Direct peer given DJ&A and WEST formed a strategic partnership in June 2026; complementary technical strengths in water resources make them a tightly comparable peer for that segment.
• Huitt-Zollars: Mid-size civil engineering, planning, and surveying firm serving federal, state, and municipal clients across the western and southern US. Comparable scale and federal contracting focus, with similar survey/transportation/water service mix; relevant peer for evaluating IDIQ recompete performance at DJ&A's tier.

Broad incumbents

• WSP USA: Global engineering and professional services firm with large federal, transportation, and environmental practices in the US. Overlaps significantly with DJ&A's federal transportation and environmental work, but operates at much larger scale and broader portfolio, making it a broad incumbent reference point rather than a direct mid-market competitor.
