Who we are - TVGA Consultants

WHO WE ARE

TVGA Consultants (TVGA) provides comprehensive engineering, architectural, surveying, mapping, architectural, environmental, grant writing and construction inspection and administration services to clients in government, business, and industry throughout New York State and across the United States. For the past 94 years TVGA has continued to grow and expand and currently has a staff of highly qualified and experienced personnel. This in-house staff includes civil engineers, grant writers, geologists, architects, photogrammetrists and land surveyors as well as the necessary support staff.

Our Commitment

Each and every one of our employees has made a pledge to maintain a commitment to communication, environmental stewardship and sustainable design. We take these commitments very seriously:

• Communicate with our clients. Guarantee a 24 hour call back.

• Serve as stewards for the earth’s natural resources and our clients’ vision.

• Maintain a commitment to sustainable solutions.

Our Approach

All too often, quick short-term solutions are provided, which lead to future problems. To be true stewards, it is important to consider the long-term possibilities and account for them in today’s answers. We accomplish this by:

• Listening to our clients’ needs and concerns.

• Building a collaborative partnership.

• Bringing our clients’ vision to fruition.

• Utilizing a systematic approach for creating innovative solutions.

• Proposing a multi-faceted and shared approach - from the first meeting to project completion.

• Addressing today’s needs without making them tomorrow’s problem.

Minimizing the impact on the environment is always part of the TVGA decision-making process. We are committed to the solution’s long term effect, not just the immediate response that is required by regulation.

TVGA is committed to constant communication and pro-active project coordination. When a client partners with TVGA, they will be bringing a project manager to the team. Our clients aren’t required to manage our managers.

Our Mission

To provide solutions that improve the built environment for today’s issues, without creating tomorrow’s problem, while serving as stewards of both the earth’s natural resources and our clients vision.
