What Veith Engineering & Business Solutions does

Veith Engineering & Business Solutions (VEBS) is a Florida-based, privately held professional services firm founded in April 2019 by Bryan T. Veith, P.E., F.ASCE, that provides civil and environmental engineering and utility-focused business consulting. The firm delivers two integrated service lines: Engineering Solutions (master planning, hydraulic/hydrologic modeling, GIS, engineering design, construction administration and inspection, CMOM programs, asset management, regulatory compliance, and alternative project delivery such as CMAR and Design-Build) and Business Consulting Solutions (strategic planning, organizational assessments, O&M evaluations, business process optimization, KPI development, and CIP planning). Its signature methodology is the proprietary "OneWater"/"1Water" integrated water management framework, used to develop Florida's first One Water Master Plan for the City of Winter Haven. The firm also builds proprietary decision-support, economic analytics, business case evaluation, and CIP prioritization tools for individual utility clients (notably Sarasota County).

VEBS sells exclusively through direct, CEO-led business development and competitive government procurement (RFQ/RFP) for continuing (as-needed) engineering contracts and multi-year program engagements. The active book comprises 12 continuing contracts and approximately 25 public and private clients, with the largest single project fee and largest multi-year program fee each at approximately $2 million. The customer base is dominated by Florida county and city government utilities (Sarasota, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Manatee, Charlotte, St. Petersburg, Winter Haven, Haines City, Tarpon Springs, Bradenton, Longboat Key), with limited private-sector and nonprofit engagements (Sozo Missions; Brown & Caldwell as a business consulting client; Arcadis as a teaming partner). Geographic reach is entirely domestic (Florida), spanning from Pasco County to the east coast to Naples, served from three offices in Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch (Manatee County), and Tampa (Hillsborough County).

VEBS is bootstrapped and founder-owned, with no disclosed venture capital, private equity, or institutional funding. The firm employs approximately 8 professionals with 150+ combined years of relevant experience and has been recognized on the University of South Florida Fast 56 (ranked #9 in 2024, #22 in 2023) and the University of Florida Gator 100 (ranked #10 in 2024) lists of fastest-growing alumni-led firms. Bryan Veith's leadership profile — ASCE Fellow status, former office-building roles at Brown and Caldwell and Boyle Engineering, and active involvement in ASCE, DBIA, AWWA, and the UF ESSIE External Advisory Board — anchors the firm's credibility-based go-to-market in a relationship-driven government utility procurement environment.
