HOLLYWOOD, FL, Jan 13, 2025 – NV5 has announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Group Delta, a provider of infrastructure engineering, testing, and environmental PFAS services. Headquartered in Irvine, CA, Group Delta specializes in large-scale water, electrical utility, and transportation infrastructure throughout Southern California.
Group Delta’s 100 employees operate out of five consulting and testing laboratories in Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego counties, delivering geotechnical engineering, materials testing, special inspections, forensics engineering, and environmental PFAS and compliance consulting. The acquisition strengthens NV5’s infrastructure engineering, conformity assessment, and utility fire hardening capabilities in the region.
“The combined capabilities of NV5 and Group Delta provide a strong competitive advantage when pursuing large scale electrical, water, and transportation infrastructure improvement projects, and we look forward to contributing to the success of these infrastructure projects across the region,” said Ben Heraud, CEO of NV5.
“California recently committed to investing $180 billion to improve the state’s infrastructure, including once in a generation energy, water, and transportation improvements. Recent events in Southern California have demonstrated the need to improve the state’s critical infrastructure, and we are pleased to strengthen NV5’s capabilities to support our city, county, state, and utility clients throughout Southern California,” said Dickerson Wright, PE, executive chairman of NV5.
“All of us at Group Delta are excited about the career opportunities that NV5 presents for our employees and the new services we can now offer to our clients,” said Shah Ghanbari, PE, president of Group Delta. “We are excited to join NV5 and look forward to expanding our long-standing client relationships with NV5’s complete portfolio of conformity assessment, engineering design, and tech-enabled services,” said Mike Reader, PE, CEO of Group Delta.
