History & ORGANIZATION
Stanley Consultants, Inc., a Stanley Group Company, traces its beginning to 1913, when Central States Engineering began its practice in Muscatine, Iowa.
In 1932, C. Maxwell Stanley joined the two-person firm and the firm was renamed Young and Stanley, Inc.
The firm was growing and the company began to stretch geographically. In 1939, the firm's name changed to Stanley Engineering Company and was poised for a remarkable future. With rural electrification, state roads and highways, sanitary systems, and running water in demand, Max Stanley pioneered quality service methods for clients. These methods and the unique service practices were recorded in his book, The Consulting Engineer, published in 1961. It became the foremost source book for engineers and others in the consulting industry.
Stanley Engineering Company was nationally recognized and entered the international field in 1956, opening an office in Monrovia, Liberia, in 1957. In 1966, the company name was changed to Stanley Consultants, Inc., to better reflect the growing number of services provided. Client needs exceeded pure engineering. Architects, economists, construction services managers, and planners were among the many new service providers.
In 1984, Stanley Consultants expanded to the Southwest and in 1986, to the Southeast. The company continued to change, entering the environmental and design-build fields.
Stanley Consultants is a member-owned firm. Max referred to employees as "members" and encouraged ownership, through the purchase of shares in the company.
Today, Stanley Consultants is a worldwide provider of engineering, environmental, and construction services. Since 1913, the company has successfully completed more than 23,000 engagements in all 50 states, U.S. territories, and in 98 countries. Stanley Consultants now maintains offices in 17 domestic and select international locations. |
