609 Consulting was founded in 2007 by Barry Venn, PE, who had already spent more than three decades in civil engineering consulting across the Rocky Mountain region. That approach still holds: keep the crews local, keep the project managers on the phone, and keep the deliverable ahead of the schedule.
Today the team runs to 58 people across five offices, including ten professional engineers, five professional land surveyors and multiple field crews.
