American Engineers

American Engineers, Inc. is a full-service, award-winning, civil engineering firm established more than 35 years ago with three locations in Kentucky and one in Georgia. Throughout our decades-long history, we have earned a stellar reputation in providing civil engineering services including Transportation, Geotechnical, Bridge and Structural, Site Design, Environmental, and Geospatial. We invest in the most advanced technology and most qualified people. The AEI team includes over 100 topflight engineers and professionals who undergo continuous training to accomplish even the most complex tasks.

The AEI culture is not built upon a name. Our culture has been built on people by design. We put people first because they represent the face of AEI whether dealing with clients, teaming partners, the community, public officials, or community residents. Every day they reinforce the values that form the AEI culture. AEI is always looking for qualified engineers, designers, surveyors, and landscape architects to add strength and depth to our core team and accommodate our growing business. We believe in smart growth in our communities and within our organization.

AEI was recognized as the 2019 Society of American Military Engineers Small Business of the Year at the Federal Small Business Conference for the Architect/Engineer/Contractor (A/E/C) Industry in Dallas. AEI was one of 29 small business firms nominated from across the U.S. AEI and the National Park Service were awarded an ACEC-KY 2019 Engineering Excellence Grand Award for the Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standard (ABAAS) compliant Mammoth Cave Echo River Trail. Our most recent recognition for support to Federal programs is back-to-back-to-back 2019, 2018 and 2017 SAME Kentuckiana Post Small Business Awards for Excellence in A/E Design Services.

AEI provides multidisciplinary services to Fort Campbell, Fort Sill, and Fort Knox through an A/E IDIQ Contract awarded in 2019. A recent task order win included a $2.568M barracks renovation at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Exceptional performance on previous TDOT Design and Geotechnical Services Contracts helped AEI develop a reputation for quality service and delivery. We are pleased to have been selected for a Field Services On-Call Contract in TDOT Region 3. AEI was proud to be selected by KYTC as part of the Parsons Transportation Group, Inc. team for preliminary design, final design, right-of-way and other services for Section 1 of I-69 in Henderson, Kentucky.

Balancing needed and necessary growth with the preservation of our natural resources is one of the greatest challenges facing today's businesses and governments. We respect and understand the complexities of creating harmony between civil engineering, construction, and our environment.

Our philosophy is to develop sites that meet client objectives, while ensuring they are functional, compliant, aesthetic, and ready for construction. AEI combines your vision with the realities of existing site conditions and engineering best practices to deliver an optimal site layout and return on your investment. We provide comprehensive site development services that effectively incorporate roadways; parking and site circulation; utilities including water, sewage, and drainage; stormwater management; and all associated surveys and inspections associated with site planning.

Bridge and structural designs can range from a simple mock-up to complex architectural or engineering designs. Regardless of the type of structure, it has a meaningful impact on its surroundings - both in aesthetics and utility. AEI takes pride in the bridge and structural engineering services we offer. Safe, economic, and innovative structural designs are signature strengths of AEI. Our structural team is so sought after that not only do clients choose us time and again over our competitors, but our competitors seek our partnership for projects involving structural design and consulting.
