An unwavering commitment to quality has fueled AKS Engineering & Forestry’s growth. Since our founding 26 years ago, we have earned a reputation for guiding clients through land use planning, site design, permitting, and construction processes.

  • Civil Engineering
  • Surveying
  • Landscape Architecture
  • Consulting Arborist
  • Construction Support
  • Natural Resources
  • Forestry and Forest Engineering
  • Planning
  • GIS
  • Water Resources

Our Culture

Stronger Together

We work together, we play together, and our community is made stronger through interactions at special events with clients and employees. These events help to instill a common purpose, build deeper relationships, and allow us to know each other as people first.

I really like the attitude and environment of the company and my coworkers. I like that I have the freedom to approach projects and solve problems independently while still collaborating with my coworkers and supervisors.

Our Culture

Clients First

At AKS Engineering & Forestry, our priority is to understand our clients, what motivates them, what their needs are, and how we can help them achieve their goals. We take pride in our work and are passionate about quality. Therefore, we know that when we put our clients’ needs first, the rest will fall into place.

AKS’ work enabled us to move activities in a very tight timeframe that would have been impossible if it had not been for your swift work!

Community

Actions matter. In fact, they speak volumes. AKS employees actively participate in local communities to serve charitable organizations as board members, volunteers, and advocates. From company-wide efforts to individual service, taking an active role to better our communities promotes common values and a better understanding of where we live and work.
