The year was 1972.

Nixon went to China. Elvis was still skinny. Smokin' Joe was heavyweight champ. The Cubs' Billy Williams was National League batting champion. And a small civil engineering consulting firm got legs in Chicago's north suburbs.

Talk about an auspicious year.

Three decades later, the Manhard name is synonymous with quality, commitment and engineering excellence. No one does it better, no one works harder to meet tight schedules and budgets. Our portfolio of completed projects tells the story. Through the years, our team, our services and our capabilities have grown substantially, but our work ethic remains unchanged. We still work harder than anyone else to make sure your needs are met.

That's what this company is all about.
