“Marron’s environmental planning and permitting (EP&P) practice will meaningfully enhance NV5’s environmental services vertical in a market we know quite well,” said Dickerson Wright, PE, Chairman and CEO. “Our Albuquerque team has worked with Marron in the past and we believe there are immediate synergies and opportunities for reoccurring revenue between our two companies. We also share a deep commitment to our clients and we know the reputation for high-quality work Marron has in the region.”

Marron President and CEO Shelly Herbst said, “Like NV5, Marron is committed to a seller-doer business model. Our experts and practitioners have maintained relationships with our clients for many years and by joining forces with NV5 we will be able to serve our clients even more effectively within the environmental space but also in the other engineering service verticals NV5 offers.”
