Tata & Howard, Inc. has acquired the assets of civil engineering consultancy Roald Haestad, Inc. (RHI), for an undisclosed sum. Both firms specialize in water-related consulting engineering services and are based in Waterbury, Conn. The deal adds to the growing list of mergers and acquisitions of industry firms operating in the tristate region. This includes WSP Global Inc.’s recently announced plan to buy Parsons Brinckerhoff from Balfour Beatty for $1.35 billion.
T&H focuses on water, wastewater, stormwater and hazardous water engineering services. The deal bolsters its existing offerings by providing additional civil engineering services including dam engineering, surveying, and streamflow release analysis, Donald J.
