L2A Land Design

What L2A Land Design does

L2A Land Design LLC is a privately held civil engineering consulting firm founded in 2006 by Managing Principals Michael E. Dipple, PE and William R. Vogt, PE. The firm provides specialized land development engineering services — including site feasibility, zoning analysis, site layout, grading design, stormwater management, utility design, permitting, and construction support — to property developers, municipalities, and commercial enterprises in New Jersey and New York. Its service model is relationship-driven, project-based professional services with principal-level involvement on every engagement.

The firm's core technology stack consists of standard industry civil engineering software for site planning, grading, stormwater, and utility design; no proprietary platform or AI/ML capability is indicated. Revenue is generated through one-time project fees quoted individually based on scope, complexity, and regulatory requirements rather than recurring contracts. Customer acquisition is primarily referral- and reputation-driven within the New Jersey land development community, supported by a project portfolio that includes enterprise engagements for Shop Rite, Wells Fargo, Wegmans, Englewood Hospital, and NJM Insurance.

In 2022, L2A acquired Edwards Engineering Group (established 1993), a Somerville, NJ-based firm offering engineering, planning, surveying, and inspection services. The acquired entity operates as a retained-brand subsidiary, extending L2A's service line into land surveying and adding a second office location. The combined firm operates from Englewood, NJ (headquarters) and Somerville, NJ, is fully licensed and certified for projects in both New Jersey and New York, and is actively hiring across engineering, surveying, construction management, and CAD roles.

Broad incumbents

• VHB: VHB is a multi-disciplinary engineering, planning, and environmental firm with significant Northeast land-development and transportation practices — addresses the same client pain points (entitlement, stormwater, permitting) as L2A but at substantially greater scale.
• Stantec: Stantec is a global engineering, architecture, and environmental services firm with a substantial Northeast site/civil practice serving commercial and municipal clients — a broad incumbent peer rather than a direct boutique competitor.
• Kimley-Horn: Kimley-Horn is a national, employee-owned planning/engineering consultancy with strong land development and site/civil practices across multiple regions. It competes with L2A on larger developer accounts but operates at far greater geographic scale.
• Mott MacDonald: Mott MacDonald is a global engineering consultancy with strong U.S. land development, municipal, and environmental practices — a broader incumbent offering comparable civil/site services to larger developer and institutional clients.

Direct peers

• Colliers Engineering & Design (formerly Maser Consulting): Colliers Engineering & Design is a NJ-rooted multi-discipline engineering firm (civil, surveying, environmental) serving private developers and public clients across the Northeast — an obvious head-to-head on L2A's project types and acquired Edwards-style surveying capabilities.
• Dynamic Engineering Consultants: Dynamic Engineering is a NJ-based civil engineering, surveying, and planning consultancy serving residential, commercial, and mixed-use developers — a clear mid-market peer in geography, service mix, and customer segment.
• Bohler Engineering: Bohler is a privately held, ENR-ranked site/civil engineering consulting firm based in the Northeast U.S. that provides land development, site design, stormwater, and entitlement services to property developers and commercial clients — closely mirroring L2A Land Design's service mix and go-to-market.
• Langan Engineering & Environmental Services: Langan is a large private site/civil, geotechnical, and environmental engineering firm with deep NJ/NY presence, serving commercial, residential, and institutional developers on land development projects of comparable scope and regulatory complexity as L2A's book.
• T&M Associates: T&M is a New Jersey-headquartered mid-sized engineering firm offering civil/site, municipal, environmental, and surveying services across NJ, PA, NY, and CT — a direct comparable in geography, service scope, and mid-market project mix.
• CME Associates: CME is a NJ-based engineering and surveying firm providing land development, site/civil, and municipal engineering in NJ and adjacent states — directly comparable service stack and customer base to L2A's stated segments.
