Morgan Engineering

What Morgan Engineering does

Morgan Engineering LLC is a privately held, founder-owned civil engineering, surveying, and architectural services firm headquartered in Island Heights, New Jersey. Founded in 1993 by Frank Sadeghi, P.E., C.M.E., the firm provides integrated professional services across surveying (boundary, ALTA, topographic, elevation, title transfer), civil and site engineering (site plans, subdivisions, stormwater management, utility design), structural engineering (foundation design, retaining walls, home elevation), and architecture. Field operations use conventional surveying technology — GPS, Trimble Robotic Total Station, Spectra Ranger Data Collectors, and 3D scanning — with AutoCAD Civil 3D as the primary design platform.

The company operates through three divisions: the core Morgan Engineering practice, the woman-owned Morgan Municipal division (established 2023, led by CEO Lauren Plump) which provides engineering, planning, landscape architecture, and inspection services to New Jersey municipalities including direct administration of NJDOT Local Aid and Community Development Block Grant funding, and Morgan Architecture (launched 2025), a full architectural and design services division covering residential, commercial, renovations, and sustainable design. Customer segments span residential property owners, real estate attorneys and title companies, commercial developers, and public-sector municipal clients; named enterprise accounts include Lowe's, Costco, and McDonald's for ALTA survey work. The firm holds professional licensure in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York, supporting regional expansion beyond its NJ base.

Revenue is generated on a project-based professional services model with quote-driven pricing tied to scope, property size, and regulatory requirements. Go-to-market is sales-led, relying primarily on direct client engagement, attorney and developer referrals, and repeat municipal appointments rather than marketing-driven demand generation. The firm is entirely founder-owned with no external funding rounds disclosed, recently adding CFO and Chief Talent Officer roles to support scaling.
