Real People
Our team understands the value of face-to-face meetings, friendly conversations, and a collaborative decision-making process to keep your projects focused on real, workable solutions.

“We view our organizational structure as optimizing the scale of human capital necessary to operate our systems, encourage accountability, and advance initiatives generated, vetted, and selected by our Thought System!”
– Kreg Schmidt, P.E., Vice President/COO
Meet our thought leaders.
Giving our team members a platform to influence company decisions is at the core of how we operate. We have established a diverse set of thought-influencing teams that directly contribute to decisions made by our executive leadership. Our thought influencers carefully inspect every piece of the puzzle before placing it to make sure it’s the right fit. Staff input on company decision-making expands individual employee opportunity and impacts the real solutions we provide to help our clients succeed.

Culture Collaboration Team
“As an engineer, I get to use the technical side of my brain every day. The culture committee allows me to use the creative side of my brain, which I missed! Planning both large company-wide events as well as smaller office-centered activities to give everyone’s brain a break for 5-10 minutes is extremely rewarding!”
Marcell Walker
Infrastructure Equity Team
“Equity is defined differently within each community. Bolton & Menk appreciates the need for it, regardless of the community we serve. Our tagline Real People Real Solutions ties right into
that. It encompasses real people in
the community and the real solutions we provide.”
Brian Simmons, P.E.
Product Innovation Team
“Product innovation is an opportunity for us to anticipate things that our clients are not yet even aware that they need. We spend time thinking about where markets are going or where the industry is headed. Allowing smaller communities to have access to technologies they might not otherwise have is the ultimate goal.”
