Established in 2006, the company began with a vision to integrate field crews, proprietary software, and rugged hardware into a unified vegetation-management force.
Merged in 2025
Strategic Expansion
The company merged with ECI Environmental Consultants in early 2025, expanding its expertise while maintaining vendor neutrality and consultative roots.
It began as a specialized consultant to utilities and municipalities, building credibility one successful project at a time across North America.
Leveraging its ARBORLINE platform, the company seamlessly coordinates electronic work planning, GIS mapping, landowner outreach, and quality auditing.
Its projects typically span utility line clearance, damage assessments, regulatory notifications, and data-center/solar-farm environmental support.
Known for real-time project dashboards, field-drone integration, and civil support, it frequently brings transportation and infrastructure projects into its portfolio.
Safety training is built into daily routines—its 'Target Zero' program, hazard reviews, and certifications (OSHA, ISNetworld, Avetta) ensure no-injury goals.
Unusually, it embeds monitoring tech in field devices—tracking assets and workforce in real time, a capability that some regard as cutting-edge, others as intrusive.
