Global firm expands US presence with Miami-based acquisition

MIAMI, Oct. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — With Florida leading the nation in population growth and infrastructure demand, global professional services company GHD has acquired Miami-based A.D.A. Engineering, Inc. (ADA Engineering), effective September 30, 2025.

The deal combines ADA Engineering’s 40+ years of local expertise with GHD’s global reach to help meet Florida’s pressing needs in water, wastewater, transportation and emergency response.

“Florida is the fastest-growing state in the US and our top priority for regional expansion,” said Steven Davie, Regional General Manager, GHD. “ADA Engineering’s trusted client relationships and municipal expertise give us the foundation to deliver resilient infrastructure and compete for the state’s most important projects.”

Florida roots, global reach

Founded in 1981, ADA Engineering has delivered projects for Miami-Dade County, the City of Miami, other local municipalities and the South Florida Water Management District, with particular strength in stormwater, water and sewer infrastructure, transportation corridors and emergency response.

“For more than four decades, ADA Engineering has proudly supported Florida’s communities,” said Alberto Argudin, President of ADA Engineering. “By joining GHD, we can honor that legacy while unlocking new opportunities to expand our impact and better serve clients and employees alike.”

Albert Argudin, Vice President of ADA Engineering, added: “Our team is energized by this new chapter in our relationship with GHD. GHD’s global resources allow us to take on larger, more complex projects while maintaining the local insight and client focus that define ADA Engineering and its legacy.”

ADA Engineering will transition to the brand “ADA Engineering, a GHD company” while fulfilling existing small business enterprise contracts.
