Full-service engineering firm, DeSimone Consulting Engineering has announced the acquisition of structural engineering firm, DP Squared Ltd. The acquisition builds upon the company’s United Kingdom headquarters in central London.
Stephen DeSimone, Chairman and CEO of DeSimone Consulting Engineering, shared: “As DeSimone continues to grow internationally, we are thrilled to bring on Darren, Deborah, and the entire DP Squared team. Their extensive experience in structural design, impressive work across major projects, and client-centred approach will enrich DeSimone’s capabilities throughout the UK/European region.”
Based in Hebden Bridge, England, DP Squared launched in 2004 and has maintained a strong presence in the North of England. The firm brings with it a wealth of experience in Manchester and has designed five out of six of Manchester’s tallest buildings. Their portfolio includes the 66-story Deansgate Square tower, the tallest building in the UK outside of London.
Additionally, DP Squared has worked on more than 800 projects, ranging from refurbishing listed buildings that regenerate local communities to transformative infrastructure projects and tall buildings that diversify city centres.
Darren and Deborah Paine, Directors at DP Squared, commented: “DP Squared is a family that we have nurtured through its teenage years, and now it is time for it to fly and grow. By joining DeSimone, we will leverage our new partners’ global knowledge and resources to better deliver for the company’s clients worldwide.”
With the acquisition, DP Squared will operate as DeSimone Consulting Engineering UK from its current office Hebden Bridge while Darren and Deborah will join the senior management team at DeSimone in the UK. DP Squared’s local experience and client portfolio, when teamed with DeSimone’s global capabilities and resources, will position DeSimone to take full advantage of the growth currently taking place in the North of England.
