What Holmen Consulting Group does

Holmen Consulting Group (HCG) is a privately held, founder-owned U.S. consulting and project construction management firm founded in 2012 by Brandon Holmen, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida with a secondary office in Cripple Creek, Colorado. The company specializes in renewable natural gas (RNG) and biogas-to-energy facility construction and operations management, serving landfill operators, energy companies, and municipalities nationwide through direct client engagement. Its two core service lines are (1) Renewable Energy & Gas Services, covering design assistance, facility and pipeline construction, earthwork, and oversight consulting for projects ranging from 1 MW to 50 MW LFGTE facilities, including work on the largest RNG facility in the United States (Potrero Hills Landfill), and (2) HDPE Pipe Fusion Services, providing certified fusion of high-density polyethylene pipe for water, gas, and landfill gas/liquid conveyance pipelines in single or dual wall configurations. Beyond its core renewables work, HCG also offers consulting for disaster response, waste management, transportation, and general business operations. The firm operates on a quote-based, project-by-project professional services revenue model with no disclosed pricing structure, public funding, marketing channels, or digital presence beyond a basic WordPress website, and relies entirely on direct sales and founder-led relationship development for new business.

Broad incumbents

• Black & Veatch: Black & Veatch is a global engineering and construction firm with significant renewable natural gas, biogas, and pipeline infrastructure capabilities. It overlaps with Holmen Consulting Group on RNG facility development and pipeline construction, but as a broad incumbent serving many sectors beyond landfill gas.
• AECOM: AECOM is a global infrastructure consulting firm with environmental, energy, and pipeline practices that overlap with HCG's landfill gas and RNG work. It competes on the same landfill operator RFPs but as a broad incumbent with multi-discipline resources.
• Burns & McDonnell: Burns & McDonnell is a large engineering, construction, and consulting firm serving the energy and environmental sectors. It is a broad incumbent comparable to Holmen Consulting Group because it provides pipeline, RNG, and gas processing engineering services at much greater scale.
• Tetra Tech: Tetra Tech is a large environmental and engineering consulting firm with significant solid waste and biogas practices. It is a broad incumbent peer to Holmen Consulting Group, providing comparable landfill gas and environmental engineering services at enterprise scale.
• HDR Inc. HDR is a large engineering and consulting firm with active practices in solid waste, landfill gas, and renewable energy infrastructure. Comparable to Holmen Consulting Group on environmental engineering and landfill gas consulting, but operating at substantially larger scale across multiple end markets.

Emerging players

• Montrose Environmental Group: Montrose Environmental is a fast-growing environmental services firm with practices in air quality, solid waste, and landfill gas consulting. It is an emerging player peer that competes with HCG for landfill operator mandates, though its service breadth is wider.
• Anaergia: Anaergia is a technology and project developer focused on biogas, renewable natural gas, and organics-to-energy facilities. While primarily a technology provider/developer rather than a consulting firm, it intersects with HCG's RNG facility development work in the same end-market.

Others

• Waste Management Inc. Waste Management is the largest U.S. solid waste operator and an active developer of landfill gas and RNG projects. It is a potential customer and ecosystem participant for HCG rather than a direct competitor, but its in-house capabilities can reduce demand for outside consultants.
• Republic Services: Republic Services is a major U.S. solid waste company that operates landfills and develops landfill gas and RNG projects in-house. It is a potential customer of Holmen Consulting Group's services rather than a direct competitor, though it increasingly internalizes this work.

Direct peers

• SCS Engineers: SCS Engineers is a leading environmental engineering and consulting firm specializing in landfill gas collection and control, LFG-to-energy, and renewable natural gas projects. It is a direct peer to Holmen Consulting Group, offering comparable design, construction management, and operations support to landfill operators across the U.S.
