OHM Advisors, a Livonia-based architecture, engineering, and planning firm, has acquired THY Inc. in Memphis, Tenn., and Griner Engineering based in St. Petersburg, Fla. Terms of the transactions were not disclosed.
THY is a land surveying and civil engineering company providing land surveying, site development, and transportation infrastructure to an array of public and private clients.
“There is a shared focus and passion between OHM Advisors and THY when it comes to the public sector and opportunities to expand and enhance infrastructure offerings,” says Jon Kramer, president of OHM Advisors.
“This acquisition strengthens OHM Advisors’ presence in Tennessee, which already includes offices in Nashville, Louisville, Knoxville, and a new location in Clarksville to enhance the firm’s survey capabilities.
“With the addition of THY, OHM Advisors is able to expand its footprint into Memphis, further scaling our operations across the state. We look forward to leveraging THY’s expertise, strong relationships and technical capabilities to meet our mission of advancing communities.”
The acquisition closed on Nov. 11, which is the date when the THY team officially joined OHM Advisors.
“Becoming a part of the OHM Advisors team is incredibly inspiring,” says Jimmy Cleveland, principal at THY Inc. “This new relationship will allow us to come together to accelerate growth and make an even greater impact in the communities we serve.”
Griner Engineering, which has a presence in Sevierville, Tenn., as well as St. Peterburg, specializes in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering services.
“What excites me most about this acquisition is the shared passion of our team members for delivering exceptional solutions for clients and delivering innovative, people-focused designs and ideas that drive whole communities forward,” says Kramer. “By combining our talents and expertise, we are well-positioned to meet our mission of advancing communities today, tomorrow and for generations to come.”
Founded in 1968, Griner Engineering serves a wide range of clients, including municipal, educational, commercial, and industrial sectors nationwide.
