PEER Consultants P.C
Jim Welch's Company Details
In 1978, PEER was established under Dr. Abron's belief: Humans and the physical environment are fully compatible and co-exist to mutually benefit one another. This very philosophy continues to shape our problem-solving approach of taking every asset of the natural and built environments into consideration to provide solutions that are transformative, sustainable, and appropriate.Dr. Lilia A. Abron, the CEO/President and Founder of PEER Consultants, P.C. (PEER) is a trailblazer, a History Maker™, an entrepreneur. She is the first African-American woman in the nation to earn a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering and the first African-American to start an engineering consulting firm focused on the environment and its environmental issues. This has helped shape the unique company PEER is today — a steward of the environment that continually promotes collaboration, builds a sense of community through its work, and strives to create a better planet for present and future generations.Using a personalized approach every time, we focus on solving today's challenging environmental problems. Every day we are realizing our vision as a prosperous and productive environmental company that exceeds the expectations of our clients and employees, while delivering high-quality services that enhance the natural and built environments. PEER, a full-service environmental engineering consulting firm, provides personalized service to our valuable clients; fosters and maintains long-term partnerships; hires passionate and diverse team members; and, we remain true to who we are—i.e. environmental stewards—always looking out for the best interest of both the natural and built environments. As PEER celebrates its 36th year in business, we are proud of how much we have grown and matured, starting with just 3 employees in 1978 to having 115 engineers, scientists, planners, technicians and administrative professionals in 6 offices nationwide and 2 international offices in South Africa today.
