Founder & CEO Gary Bowman announced a retirement plan in 2026, marking an upcoming leadership transition; the named executive team includes President Charles G. Cala and Vice Presidents Joseph E. Gonzales and J. Graeme Means. Marketing is conducted primarily through a corporate website, LinkedIn/Facebook/Instagram presence, and project/news releases. Note: the firmographics header provided for this engagement describes a much smaller, private, Albuquerque-based firm (founded 1977, 11–50 employees) at highmesacg.com, which is inconsistent with the detailed Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. records that constitute the substantive evidence in the input.
