What The Balmoral Group does

The Balmoral Group (TBG) is a privately held, women-owned civil engineering and economics consulting firm founded in 2004 and headquartered in Winter Park, Florida. The firm delivers professional services across four core practice areas: roadway engineering design (resurfacing, widening, new alignment, and a growing PD&E practice), stormwater consulting (collection, treatment, hydrologic and hydraulic analysis, flood studies), economics advisory (cost-benefit analysis, economic impact studies, policy analysis), and GIS-integrated spatial analytics. Its client base is concentrated in the public sector, with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) as a flagship customer across all districts plus the Turnpike and Central Office, alongside other federal, state, and local agencies (e.g., St. Johns River Water Management District, Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, Gulf Consortium, Indian River County) and select NGOs and industry associations.

The firm differentiates on its integration of GIS analysis into the majority of engagements and its international reputation for econometric modeling, cost-benefit analysis, probabilistic risk assessment, distributional analysis, and environmental justice analysis. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Balmoral Group Australia (BGA), headquartered in Sydney with an additional Brisbane office, developed the proprietary COAST™ model — a coastal management framework that combines hard engineering and socio-economic inputs to estimate the distribution of costs and benefits across stakeholders, including intergenerational effects.

The business model is project-based professional services delivered through competitive government procurement and direct engagement; the firm does not sell a software product and has no public pricing or revenue disclosures. TBG employs 34 professional staff across five offices (Winter Park, Tallahassee, Seattle, Sydney, Brisbane), with a notable internship-to-hire pipeline (32% of staff were former interns) and strong tenure (24% with 10+ years). Go-to-market relies on direct sales into government RFPs, supplemented by a weekly thought leadership newsletter, LinkedIn presence, and active participation in industry conferences and workshops.

The company also operates Balmoral Group Australia, which developed the proprietary COAST™ model for coastal erosion cost-benefit analysis.
