Affiliations

Thank you again for your support on this project.  You (James Parker) and your team delivered exceptional service.

You are lucky to have an employee like Lena (Fowlkes). Her professionalism, flexibility, and can do approach to accommodate my needs were exemplary. She really went the distance to help make things happen. And her attitude/pleasant humor is hugely appreciated.

Equally up to par is field fella Chris (Newberry). He is always a pleasure to have at the site and makes it happen, no matter how we jostle around the work and call in a panic.

Look forward to more successful projects with the help of good people like you have (at Kumar).

Working at Kumar & Associates has been a great experience. The company treats its employees with the utmost respect and appreciation. The mentorship and coaching for me as a young engineer has been a blessing and has helped me grow as I work towards my P.E. The company is privately held, employee-owned, and well-established in the industry. I am thankful for the opportunity to work here and the investment that has been made in me by Kumar & Associates.

After working with Kumar & Associates, Inc. for more than 3 years, I can’t be more thankful to have fallen into this industry. The small business feel is so welcoming and my managers have given me so many opportunities to advance my career and learn the industry.

…On behalf of the City of Colorado Springs, I am pleased to recognize Kumar & Associates, Inc. for their outstanding work in the development and implementation of this celebrated project. (Prospect Lake Liner System, Colorado Springs)

Kumar did a great job performing the needed geotechnical investigations, developing design drawings and other construction contract documents, assisting the Town during bidding, and providing construction management and engineering support services as well as observation and testing during construction.

Over the past several years I have had the outstanding pleasure of working with nearly a dozen Kumar & Associates employees. I would highly recommend Kumar & Associates and their technicians to anyone contemplating the hiring of such.

K+A provides a high level of knowledge and thoroughness. They make themselves readily available and are good communicators. Based on our experience, we would highly recommend Kumar for your current geotechnical needs.
