What Bowie Tiglas Engineering does

Bowie Tiglas Engineering, Inc. is a privately held, founder-led Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) engineering consultancy headquartered at 24820 N 16th Ave Suite 170, Phoenix, Arizona. Co-founded in 2018 by Justin Stewart Bowie, P.E., LEED AP and Jamie Matthew Tiglas, P.E., LEED AP, CPD, the firm consolidates Jamie's prior practice (Tiglas Engineering Associates, established 1992) into a single multi-disciplinary entity and serves commercial, industrial, and public-sector clients across Arizona, Nevada, Texas, California, and Colorado. Services are delivered through three integrated lines — Electrical Engineering (lighting modeling, power distribution, EMS, LEED/Dark Sky site lighting), Mechanical Engineering (HVAC, building controls, central plants, clean room and laboratory systems, energy recovery), and Plumbing Engineering (domestic water, sanitary/rainwater drainage, medical gases, water conservation) — with PE licensure in five states enabling direct project delivery without subconsultants.

The business operates a project-based professional services revenue model, billing engineering design, construction management, and system assessment fees on an engagement-by-engagement basis with pricing not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is predominantly direct: bottom-of-funnel relationship-based engagement with enterprise clients and referrals, supported by a top-of-funnel website project gallery segmented across hospitality, food service, education, multi-family, retail, industrial, and healthcare verticals. Documented enterprise clients include Hilton Garden Inn Sedona, Hyatt Place Flagstaff, Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott, McDonald's (BB20 prototype), Quik Trip (Generation 3 Small prototype), Coca-Cola Fleet Services (140,000 SF distribution facility), ASU Memorial Dining, and Tempe School District. The firm holds no external investment, operates no software product, has no API or app surface, and shows no AI/ML capability — its differentiation rests on licensed human expertise, multi-state regulatory coverage, and specialized capabilities in LEED/sustainable, mission-critical, and laboratory design.
