Atwell Buys Biscayne Engineering To Expand In South Florida

By Amit Chowdhry • Jun 23, 2024

Atwell announced it has acquired Biscayne Engineering, an engineering and surveying company with offices in Miami and Boca Raton, Florida. And this acquisition expands Atwell’s already robust presence in Florida, adding over 50 employees, and will be the company’s first office in Miami. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Launched in 1898, Biscayne Engineering has been at the forefront of South Florida’s growth and development for over 125 years. What started as a partnership between two surveyors has expanded to include additional services such as engineering and GIS mapping.

Atwell expanded through organic growth and strategic acquisitions across the United States over the past several years. And this is Atwell’s third acquisition of 2024 and second in Florida following the acquisition of Banks Engineering, an engineering and surveying firm based in Fort Myers, Florida, earlier this year.

Atwell is a national consulting, engineering, and construction services firm with over 1,800 professionals located across the country. Building innovative solutions for clients in industries such as real estate and land development, power and renewable energy, oil and gas, and transportation and infrastructure, Atwell offers comprehensive turnkey services including land and right-of-way support, planning, landscape architecture, engineering, land surveying, environmental compliance and permitting, natural resources consulting and project and program management.
