DJ&A, LLC (Missoula, MT) and Robinson Engineering, Ltd. (Frankfort, IL) today announced that they have joined in a strategic merger to create a nationwide engineering platform built on shared values, complementary strengths, and a shared vision for the industry’s future.
The partnership brings together two highly respected firms of comparable scale, known for their commitment to engineering quality, deep client relationships, and people-first cultures. Together, DJ&A and Robinson will combine resources, technical expertise, and geographic reach. This will enhance both firms’ ability to serve clients and pursue new opportunities, while continuing to empower local leadership and maintain the client focus that has defined their success for decades.
“We could not be more pleased to join with Robinson on this shared path forward,” said Chris Anderson, CEO of DJ&A. “Our two organizations have tremendous potential to honor our histories while building a new shared legacy together. As two public-focused firms, we are creating a merger of equals that positions us for long-term success and benefit to the communities we serve.”
“Robinson has spent nearly 90 years building relationships with communities across the Midwest,” said Aaron Fundich, CEO of Robinson Engineering. “That history matters to us, and it will continue to guide how we serve our clients and support our people. Our partnership with DJ&A gives Robinson additional flexibility to grow our capabilities in an ever-changing world, while staying true to who we are.”
The DJ&A – Robinson merger marks the beginning of a long-term strategy to build a values-driven engineering platform that will continue to evolve to meet the needs of communities, public agencies, and the broader infrastructure industry across multiple geographies.
The platform also includes the integration of WEST Consultants and Creative Engineering Group, LLC, two respected firms that bring additional depth in technical expertise, regional presence, and long-standing client relationships. Their inclusion further strengthens the combined platform’s capabilities and reflects a broader strategy of bringing together like-minded firms. Collectively, the organization is being built to compete at the highest levels while maintaining the heart, soul, and entrepreneurial spirit that define a client-focused firm.
With 25 offices across 13 states from California to Florida, including a meaningful presence in the Mountain West and the Midwest regions, the combined platform already offers a national footprint of nearly 500 employees. This geographic reach enables the organization to better serve clients across multiple regions while continuing to strengthen local relationships.
This partnership represents just the beginning. The combined leadership team is actively exploring additional opportunities to expand capabilities, strengthen service offerings, and continue shaping the firm’s shared future. Keystone Capital, based in Chicago, is serving as the financial partner supporting the formation and growth of the combined platform. Keystone has a long track record of partnering with entrepreneurs in the engineering space and is uniquely positioned to help the combined leadership team achieve scale while preserving the values, culture, and legacy that define the organization.
