RAUCH

What RAUCH does

RAUCH is a Maryland-based professional services firm founded in 1984 that delivers integrated engineering, architecture, surveying, and environmental services to public and private clients. Headquartered in Easton on Maryland's Eastern Shore, the firm operates eight technical disciplines — Architecture, Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Environmental Services, GIS & Drone Services, Local Government Services, Survey, and Water & Wastewater engineering — delivered through a unified digital platform built around BIM, 3D civil modeling, drone photogrammetry, GIS analytics, and cloud-based project management.

The firm serves 300+ clients across Maryland, the United States, and internationally, anchored by long-term municipal relationships with multiple Eastern Shore counties (Talbot, Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne's) and towns (Easton, Denton, Oxford, St. Michaels, among others). Commercial clients include Dixon Valve, Fello, Habitat for Humanity, Kentmorr Airpark, and the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. A team of 54 professionals delivers projects under a fee-for-service professional services model through direct, relationship-based sales targeting local government, municipalities, and commercial developers.

Revenue mechanics are quote-based and project-specific rather than publicly disclosed. The firm's technology-forward posture — anchored in its mid-1980s adoption of PC-based CAD and its 2014 launch of GIS & Drone Services — is positioned as its primary differentiator, enabling real-time multi-discipline coordination that the firm claims eliminates the file-exchange friction typical of siloed engineering firms. Currently led by Casey Rauch, P.E., the firm continues the founder's commitment to bringing national-firm technical capabilities to Eastern Shore clients.
