Adkins Consulting Engineering — Klamath Falls’ largest locally owned civil, structural, surveying and materials testing firm — has expanded its office staff and capabilities to better serve their clients, according to a press release.

Because of its growth, the firm will be moving to a new office location in downtown Klamath Falls later this fall.

Adkins is made up of 28 staff members, including eight licensed professional engineers and one licensed professional land surveyor. In 2016, Dave Bergman, P.E., a senior engineer with more than 45 years of experience specializing in transportation engineering and construction management, joined Adkins staff.

Recently, Andy Paul, P.E. & L.S.I.T. an Oregon Tech graduate with six years of experience, returned to Klamath Falls to continue his career. Additionally, Adkins has hired five fulltime engineering students from OIT that interned with the company prior to graduating.

Adkins is locally owned and operated and has been serving clients in southern Oregon and Northern California since 1983. It specializes in assisting rural cities, counties, special districts and private clients with a variety of projects including planning, design and construction administration of water, wastewater, street, highway, bridge, building (commercial and residential), natural resources, irrigation, water resources, and other related projects.

“We have been busting at the seams in our current office building for the last several years, so we are excited to have more elbow room and space to expand our operations,” said Dan Scalas, Adkins engineer and one of the firm’s newest owners.

The company is actively seeking to hire additional engineers and other support staff to join its Klamath Falls or Medford office.

The new office will be located in downtown Klamath Falls at 1435 Esplanade Street.
