GFA International, Inc. (GFA) a leading engineering firm in South Florida over the last 32 years, continues to expand. In a move to further strengthen its geographical footprint in the State of Florida and beyond, GFA is very excited to announce the recent merger of GFA International, Inc. (GFA) and Universal Engineering Sciences (UES).

UES with offices in Florida, Georgia, Metro DC and the Carolinas is a 56-year-old company providing similar core services to GFA including geotechnical engineering, environmental consulting, construction materials testing and inspections, building code compliance and facilities consulting. The combined company resources include 26 offices and 1,200+ highly skilled professionals ready to service clients throughout the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. “This strategic merger allows us the ability to provide our clients and their projects access to some of the best engineering talent and resources available in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic region and service projects outside of our traditional geographical footprint” says Fred Kaub, President of GFA International, Inc.

In the near term, the two companies will operate separately but will be integrated during 2020. Seymour Israel, Mark Israel, Frank Frione, and Fred Kaub will continue to lead the combined companies.
