RTM is a national MEP, Civil, and Structural engineering consulting firm that has achieved success by remaining privately-owned and governed by our leadership team of partners. We have highlighted our commitment to growth through investment in successful entrepreneurial firms throughout the country, with a like-minded vision of the future.
BEYOND A FAMILY BUSINESS
IN THE MEDIA
Tony Mirchandani sits down with Will Foret and Justin Neagle of Building Scale Podcast to talk about why RTM first began its growth journey, the strategy set forth to accomplish this, and how the firm has been successful in finding other companies to partner with that allow people on both sides to win.
Larry Kaprielian and Tony Mirchandani sit down with Brian Franco of Meritage Partners to chat about the recent merger of KNA and RTM. They discuss commonalities portrayed in both firms, what a positive cultural fit means, and what some of the future plans are for the newly combined team.
Challenges confronting industry and society today demand solutions that go beyond engineering. Listen to this award-winning program as RTM team members, and their clients and partners share stories about innovative design, collaborative development and exacting execution that help buildings, businesses, and people working inside them, work better.
ADDED VALUE TO YOUR FIRM'S LEGACY
We offer a unique option for small and mid-sized business owners who are looking for an opportunity to monetize their life-long hard work, while keeping their legacy intact and bridging the gap between current owners and their next generation. With this strategy, RTM’s focus is preserving local relationships, regional presence, and culture, while providing the partner with national resources, strategic partners and benefits from scale.

FULLY CUSTOMIZED EXPERIENCE
Over the past 10 years, each firm we have brought into the RTM sphere has involved a customized transaction to meet the needs and desires of the seller – financially, operationally, and to accommodate lifestyle desires. We are not a financial buyer with specific mandates on how to buy/sell. We work with the seller to design a deal that is tailored to their firm’s needs.
