RSK Group acquires Civil Geotechnical Consultants

RSK has added our team as geotechnical sector specialists to its Australia division with its acquisition of Civil Geotechnical Consultants (CGC).

RSK Group Board Member and Divisional Director for RSK Australia Mark Haydock said: “CGC is an excellent addition to the RSK businesses currently bringing a range of multidisciplinary skills to our strong Australian offering. RSK is known for being a global leader in the delivery of environmental and engineering solutions and CGC joining the group greatly enhances this commitment, providing our clients with end-to-end solutions in Australia.

“We have been hugely impressed with CGC’s depth of skills and project delivery, including its TMR GE3 qualification, the highest level of geotechnical accreditation for major transport projects in Queensland, paving the way for some impressive project wins and a great future for this team and RSK, as we continue to make our contribution to Australia’s ongoing development.”

CGC directors Barry Land, David Carson and Ian Thompson will continue to lead the business.

The directors said: “We were drawn to RSK because the group’s acquisition model allows us to retain our identity while supporting our growth ambitions. Joining the group opens up new markets, resources and geographies to our business with the opportunity to support large-scale multidisciplinary projects.”

This acquisition will see our internal management structure, employees and business continuing as normal but moving to new ownership within a larger organisation that will support our continued growth, development and excellent reputation. RSK’s acquisition model allows us to retain our identity while supporting our growth ambition and continue delivering the service.

Recent projects have seen us delivering geotechnical consulting services to our clients in the transport infrastructure sector in both road and rail. These services have included investigation, design, construction phase support and tender design services on large nation-building projects, including the Coomera Connector and Direct Sunshine Coast Rail.
