About Us

We are KGS Group, an employee-owned, multidisciplinary engineering consulting firm serving clients throughout North America. We’re different than traditional engineering firms.

  • Design sampling programs for the collection of soil, groundwater, surface water and sediments.
  • Work with remediation technical teams on development of site remediation options and/or contaminated site management options.
  • Lead the management and interpretation of data, and preparation of technical contaminated site reports.
  • Coordinate and manage environmental projects including site remediation projects, environmental site assessments (ESAs), hazardous materials assessments, solid waste planning, ongoing monitoring programs, and hydrogeological studies.
  • Provide input to the Management Team regarding the career development of junior staff.
