Engineering Services

Westward offers comprehensive engineering services across industrial, civil, land, and water sectors. Our services support every stage of the project lifecycle, from early planning to final completion. We focus on key phases like site characterization, feasibility studies, detailed design, permitting, construction oversight, and site closure. Our engineering services include floodplain modeling, water treatment designs, public water supply systems, detention/retention systems and diverse civil design services. Projects we manage range from groundwater wells for frac sand plant processing to full-service civil development services. By combining technology and proven engineering principles, we collaborate with clients to deliver solutions that meet their goals and regulatory standards.

Civil and Environmental Land Development Services

We are committed to using the best practices to ensure maximum functionality of your site, and our wholistic approach to design services allows us to predict potential design challenges.

We offer a custom design approach while working closely with clients and operators to integrate regulatory requirements, safety and operational standards, established processes, and other site-specific considerations. We provide services necessary to upgrade existing facilities or start from scratch with greenfield development.
