Atwell has acquired Karins and Associates, a Delaware-headquartered company specialising in engineering, surveying, and planning in the US.   

This strategic deal is expected to enhance Atwell's engineering and surveying service offerings in land development, water resources, transportation, and public works across Mid-Atlantic. 

Atwell real estate and land development senior vice-president US East Bill Anderson said: “We both have a client-centric approach, making the addition of Karins to Atwell a great fit.  

“By leveraging their decades of experience within the Mid-Atlantic, we’ll be able to provide our clients with even more capabilities. We look forward to working with the Karins team to help our clients reach their goals.” 

The terms of the deal remain undisclosed. 

Karins and Associates, with a history dating back to 1973, serves a varied client base across Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland.  

The company has more than 50 employees. 

Karins president Dev Sitaram said: “The core values of Karins and Atwell are well-aligned. We’re focused on providing clients with the highest standards of quality and service.  

“We look forward to working closely with our new teammates at Atwell, to expanding our capabilities, and providing improved services to our clients and new opportunities to our employees.” 

The latest addition comes following the acquisition of Banks Engineering in Florida last week.  

Atwell’s other acquisitions include companies such as Summit Engineering in Utah and Mead Gilman & Associates in Washington, as well as Bay Engineering earlier in 2023 and Ben Dyer Associates in 2022.
