What mma does

mma is a privately held Texas corporation headquartered in Arlington that provides civil engineering, surveying, planning, and landscape architecture services to land developers, municipal agencies, and commercial enterprises across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The firm traces its origin to a 1999 merger of Veselka Engineering Consultants and Site Planning Site Development (both founded in 1982) and rebranded to Mycoskie McInnis Associates in 2003. It operates four integrated service lines delivered by multidisciplinary project teams, supported by AutoCAD Civil 3D design software and drone-based site documentation capabilities.

The firm serves a concentrated base of enterprise clients including D.R. Horton, The Cordish Companies, the Texas Rangers, Trammell Crow Company, Greystar, Tonti Properties, Impression Homes, the Federal Aviation Administration, and Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, with a project portfolio spanning the Texas Live! entertainment district, Globe Life Field stadium, Six Flags Over Texas, the FAA Southwest Headquarters, and various industrial, healthcare, and multi-family residential developments. Revenue is generated through project-based professional services fees on multi-year contracts, with acquisition driven by direct enterprise relationships, municipal partnerships, and referrals rather than open-market sales.

The firm employs 11-50 staff across its Arlington headquarters and a second Burleson office opened in October 2020, with a five-principal leadership structure that succeeded founder Cliff Mycoskie in July 2021 under President Jacob Sumpter and COO Rob Cronin. The firm is privately owned by founders and principals with no external private equity or venture capital disclosed in available source material.
