“We have found your firm to be unusually cooperative in meeting the requirements of our customers when changes in design expectations occur. The evolving nature of the design work I’m sure placed some unexpected burdens on you, yet you met the challenges. We appreciate the fine work you have done and expect it to continue”.

“Orion Engineering provided exceptional engineering design, contractor selection, and construction management services throughout this project… In this project Orion Engineering also demonstrated effective communication and team building skills in balancing the needs and requirements of MRL, MDT and MDT’s engineering design consultant… The bid documents, contract specifications, and contract documents developed by Orion Engineering for this project have been adopted as templates by MRL to be used in future railroad projects, while the project itself is considered a standard of excellence to be used in evaluating the success of future projects.”

“Your work ethic and professional manner, in conjunction with common sense decisions has created a sound foundation for each project. Please have anyone call with reference questions.”

“Since 1999, I have consistently called upon Orion Engineering, Inc. to participate as a member of my design team… Mr. Dworsky brings to my project well-defined standards of professionalism and the highest level of competence and expertise in his profession… It is a personal honor to be able to recommend to you the service of this fine young firm for your geotechnical engineering requirements."

“The design proved to be cost effective and durable. I believe Orion’s services to be of great value, and I will use them again in the future.”

“Important aspects of these projects were slope stability of recontoured mine waste, stream reconstruction, and mine waste repository design including engineering evaluation of the repository sites using the Orion drill rig... Orion Engineering was instrumental in preparation of a superior product by providing engineering input and insight into presentation of the design.”

“We want to take this time to thank you for your responsive effort in helping us complete the preliminary planning and design on schedule and within budget. We found your work to be thorough and complete, and it served as a helpful tool in completing the detailed design for the project… We look forward to the continued working relationship between Orion Engineering, Inc. and HDR on this project as well as others in the future.”
