Stanford White represents Salas O’Brien’s first office in the Research Triangle area, and the company brings a team of engineers focused on clients in education, government, healthcare and science and technology.

This merger is a moment worth celebrating for both Stanford White and Salas O’Brien. Stanford White’s reputation for service and their quality of design is unmatched. Clients simply love them. Their team will find such a natural home at Salas O’Brien, and I’m thrilled to be bringing the Salas O’Brien difference in a bigger way to the East Coast.

As the next step in Salas O’Brien’s “local everywhere, with national resources,” growth strategy, Stanford White will continue to be managed locally by its current leaders and will adopt the Salas O’Brien name after a transition period. The transaction closed on April 30, 2020, and news of the merger was shared just after the close with the Stanford White and Salas O’Brien teams.

Right down to our founding stories, Salas O’Brien and Stanford White already feel like the same organization. Anchored by our local team, we can now offer additional services through a single, coordinated point of contact. Our team will also benefit from many opportunities to grow through collaboration as we serve clients together. I speak for our group in Raleigh when I say we’re simply thrilled to be part of the Salas O’Brien team.

Bill SmithPrincipal, Stanford White
