Spalding DeDecker, a leading civil engineering, planning and surveying firm, hired Craig Gengler, PE, as West Michigan land development lead.
Gengler has dedicated a majority of his career to land development projects and has the expertise to take a project from concept to successful completion. He brings more than 10 years of experience that includes performing site evaluations, performing soil borings and analysis, leading engineering design work, conducting pre-bid and pre-construction meetings, and managing client and stakeholder communications on a variety of projects. Craig has worked closely with large teams of architects, engineers, planners and contractors and has specialized training in wall design.
Gengler’s background encompasses commercial, institutional, residential and industrial projects ranging from small mixed-use buildings to multiphase sprawling industrial sites. Additionally, he is well versed in the design and management of K-12 education projects across Michigan. His land development expertise will complement the municipal, traffic and construction engineering services our Grand Rapids office currently offers. In his role, Craig will focus on cultivating client relationships and providing infrastructure solutions to west and mid-Michigan clients.
“His land development experience and knowledge will enable us to expand capabilities of our Grand Rapids office,” said Steve Benedettini, president of Spalding DeDecker. “We are delighted to have Craig as part of our team.”
