DJ&A, LLC, Robinson Engineering, Creative Engineering Group, and WEST Consultants — four firms operating under shared ownership and leadership — today announced their acquisition of Filippin Engineering of Goleta, California. The partnership adds Filippin Engineering’s expertise in public works engineering and construction management to the larger organization’s primary offerings of engineering, surveying, environmental, planning, and related services, and combined personnel of over 500 professionals across 25 offices in 13 states.
Filippin Engineering specializes in serving public agencies across California’s Central Coast, focusing on construction engineering and inspection for public works capital improvement projects. The firm’s core services are construction management, inspection, civil engineering, program management, staff augmentation, labor compliance, and specification writing. With offices in Goleta, San Luis Obispo, and Ventura, the partnership expands the DJ&A organization’s reach into California’s Central Coast.
“The fit with Filippin Engineering was clear,” said Chris Anderson, President and CEO of the shared organization. “Filippin Engineering brings expertise that complements our organization and a strong base of municipal clients who share the kind of long-term relationships we value. We’re aligned on what matters most: our people and the communities we serve.”
“We took our time making sure this would be a good fit. Paramount was a shared belief that people come first, which made the decision an easy one,” said Gino Filippin, the founder and President of Filippin Engineering. “Our clients will see the same faces and the same commitment, now backed by a national organization. For our team, it opens doors we couldn’t have opened on our own.”
Filippin Engineering will retain its name for the foreseeable future. Clients can expect the same team, points of contact, and commitment to excellent service, now with additional support from a broader network of resources.
