We can use our two-week Active Duty for Training (ADT) to satisfy your short-term engineer/staff officer requirements. If you require longer-term support, man-days and TDY funds may be required. We encourage all prospective customers to contact us as soon as possible with requirements since we typically begin scheduling assistance visits by March of the prior fiscal year. Our expertise is limited by the amount of time our engineers and technicians can spend away from their civilian jobs.
If you are a Civil Engineering officer (32EX) leaving active duty or a reserve officer looking for a new challenge, you may want to consider talking to us. We are always looking for experienced architects and engineers who would like to join our team.
