Who We Serve
Since 1972, QK has successfully partnered with public and private agencies to plan and engineer creative solutions that have lasting positive impacts. Offering programmatic professional services that allow us to serve many of the needs of our diverse clientele in-house, QK’s efforts result in the establishment and/or improvement of sustainable communities which offer a better quality of life for the communities in which we live and serve.
Government
QK has been a leading provider of engineering, land surveying, planning, and environmental services to California public agencies for nearly 50 years. Our One Connected Team philosophy is designed to help cities, counties, water, wastewater, and special districts, by offering a broad range of comprehensive services, strategically interwoven to make project delivery nearly seamless.
We also help many of our public agency clients as contract City or District Engineer and/or Surveyor. In these roles, our staff becomes an extension of City/District staff as needed. As a result, these clients gain access not only to their designated Engineer or Surveyor but a support staff of more than 100 licensed and technical support staff, extending our One Connected Team philosophy into the Cities which we serve.
Water
Water is the lifeblood of every community, and its efficient and dependable supply storage and distribution are vital to our quality of life.
For nearly 50 years, QK has partnered with municipal agencies, water, and special districts, to provide guidance and professional services designed to ensure that this most vital of resources remains safe and reliable.
Our role as the Contract City Engineer for seven cities and Project Engineer and/or District Engineer for 15 water and/or special districts provides an understanding of the unique challenges faced by these types of agencies. QK has broad experience developing feasible, efficient water facility design solutions. Our team includes a diverse group of licensed and technical specialists who design sustainable water systems.
Land Development
With a solid grounding in surveying, permitting, land use planning, environmental planning, community design, and engineering, QK is fully equipped to ensure our homebuilder and corporate land development clients achieve their community development and economic goals. In addition, our public agency experience means we can help our clients navigate the complexities of getting a project permitted.
Energy
Understanding the unique needs of both the renewable, petroleum and electric utility industries, QK delivers a diverse range of planning and regulatory solutions to our energy clients. For nearly 50 years, the firm has acquired an in-depth knowledge of environmental planning, biological evaluations, and land surveying services to provide the best solution possible.
Education
Pre-K, K-12, higher, and private education institutions require thoughtful planning, design, and construction. We work with our education partners and architects to engineer sustainable infrastructure solutions that school districts’ maintenance professionals and students can rely on for years to come.

Healthcare
QK has provided planning and engineering design services to local public and private healthcare facilities for more than 30 years. We work directly with healthcare professionals to improve existing facilities, and with architects to help design the infrastructure necessary for new spaces. We meet these needs in ways that are both technically sound and timely through the work of our land surveyors, engineers, planners, landscape architects, and construction management professionals.
Agriculture
California’s San Joaquin Valley is one of the largest food-producing regions in the world, and its farmers employ complex systems of crop and animal care that include wells, water, and sanitary sewer systems. With five offices located between Merced and Bakersfield, our location in the heart of America’s Fruit Basket has earned us a long history of serving farmers and their families who keep our communities fed.
