Barton & Loguidice acquires Pennsylvania consulting firm

SALINA, N.Y. — Barton & Loguidice, D.P.C. (B&L) — a Salina–based engineering, planning, environmental, and landscape-architecture firm — announced it has acquired AJC Professional Services, LLC of Pennsylvania.

AJC has offices in Pittsburgh and Harrisburg, and specializes in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing consulting engineering services to private, institutional, and public-sector clients in the Mid-Atlantic.

With this acquisition, B&L adds an office in Pittsburgh with AJC founder Eric Horvat serving as VP and branch manager. AJC’s existing Harrisburg office will integrate into B&L’s existing Camp Hill office, giving the firm a total of 17 offices in six states and 350 employees, the firm said in a release.

The acquisition of AJC brings six additional technical staff to B&L’s Pennsylvania and Mid-Atlantic markets.

“This acquisition fortifies our depth in servicing B&L’s Mid-Atlantic clientele, while continuing to expand our geographic footprint into western Pennsylvania,” B&L President and CEO John F. Brusa, Jr. said. “We are excited to have AJC join our growing B&L team.”

The acquisition takes place a year after B&L acquired Traffic Solutions in Maine. The firm also just opened an office in Utica. B&L provides technical solutions to public and private clients from offices in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Maine.
