Expansion Opportunity GRAEF has recently expanded with a new Chicago office and has a growing footprint across Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, Chicago, Minneapolis, Orlando, Miami, Sarasota, and Turks and Caicos. This presents opportunities to upsell design and engineering services for multi-site corporate real estate, municipal, and transportation projects.

Public Sector Wins Recent contracts and engagements with Milwaukee County and small municipalities like Random Lake indicate strong public-sector demand for master planning and feasibility studies. Target similar counties, city planning departments, and regional infrastructure programs to drive new engagements.

Leadership Access With Pat Kressin now serving as CEO and previously president, there is a visible executive leadership focus that can be leveraged in C-suite outreach for strategic projects, large-scale capital programs, and long-term master planning initiatives.

Sustainability Focus GRAEF emphasizes people, communities, and the planet in its mission, suggesting opportunities to position around sustainable design, resiliency, and green infrastructure for public and private sector clients seeking high-performing, future-proof projects.

Technology Enablement A tech stack including AWS, ArcGIS, Power Platform, and Salesforce indicates capable data-driven design and client engagement capabilities. Propose services that leverage these tools for smart city, GIS-based planning, and digital twin analytics to win data-heavy projects.
