At E.L. Robinson Engineering, we see things differently. To us, civil engineering is not a 9-5 job, but a 24/7 way of seeing the world. Our people bring unique experiences and individual perspectives into every facet of their professional and personal lives. This applies to building a successful civil engineering firm to golf.

Mr. Robinson founded E. L. Robinson Engineering in 1978 with four employees. Under his leadership, E. L. Robinson has really grown and enters the new millennium as a multi-disciplined professional services firm. ELR utilizes the latest technology in the design of added infrastructure, highways, bridges, structures, environmental, civil, and geotechnical projects as well as global position satellite surveying, right-of-way, construction inspections and architectural services.

The firm now employs more than 150 engineers, architects, surveyors and support personnel and has been converted to an employee owned company through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).
