Woolpert has acquired Jviation Inc., an airport planning, survey, architecture, engineering and construction management firm. Jviation serves general aviation and commercial service airports, state aeronautics departments, as well as airline and related aviation business partners.

This acquisition strengthens Woolpert’s existing aviation service offerings and expands its geographic footprint in the western U.S. Jviation is headquartered in Denver and has offices in Colorado, California, Utah, Wyoming, Missouri and Ohio. The firm was founded in 2007 and has over 100 employees.

By joining Woolpert, Jviation and its clients gain airport planning, engineering and architecture bench strength, in addition to innovative geospatial resources and expertise that include aerial and mobile lidar, subsurface utility engineering, unmanned aircraft systems, urban air mobility, and advisory and technology consulting. Jviation also gains access to Woolpert’s global architecture, engineering and geospatial (AEG) markets and services, which include energy, water, roads and bridges, information technology and advanced building design.

“The firm’s culture, size, and complementary services and geographies make this the perfect fit for Jviation,” Jviation Principal JD Ingram said. “We look forward to a highly collaborative and innovative future, in service to our clients.”
