Donan Engineering Footprint Expanding
Firm Announces Plans to Open an Additional Florida Office in the Miami, FL Area
LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Donan Engineering Co., Inc. today announced plans to open a new office in Miami, Florida. Donan will begin offering forensic investigative services from the new location on August 1, 2011. This office will represent the third office for the firm in the state of Florida to go along with Orlando and Tampa.
"We are really excited to be moving into southern Florida with the addition of a Miami office," says Kevin B. Abell, Donan Engineering's chief sales and marketing officer. "The firm is already doing a substantial amount of work in that part of the state from our central Florida offices, and we feel that the value added for our customers will be substantial with us having a physical presence in the southern part of the state. Clients have embraced us in the state over the past couple of years, and we are committed to being there for them throughout the entire state. For us, it is all about how we can provide industry-leading customer service and turnaround time, so having another office with additional staff will create more capacity for us to continue improving our service levels."
Abell went on to say, "The firm's goal of being the industry leader remains consistent, and we are continuing to push the boundaries of our company footprint so more clients can have Donan Engineering as a local option for their forensic engineering and fire investigation needs. It's not about the number of offices we have, but more about the capacity we have to handle losses in a fast and consistent manner."
Donan Engineering offers consumers a single source for forensic engineering investigations and fire origin & cause investigations. The firm offers a wide array of services falling under the main categories of structural engineering investigations, fire and explosion origin & cause investigations, roofing investigations, and component testing.
