Coffman Engineers Opens Office in Houston, Texas

Coffman Engineers, Inc. has opened its Houston, Texas, office in The Woodlands, Texas. The new location allows the firm to support clients in the healthcare, industrial, federal/military, hospitality and more.

Coffman’s second Texas office in Houston further establishes Coffman’s physical presence in the state after a 20-year history of supporting clients remotely. The office location in The Woodlands was a strategic decision to select an attractive area for employees to live and thrive, enabling it to support clients well. The office is managed by Eric Apolenis, P.E., vice president of the Southeast Region, and led locally by Mike Crowley, P.E., principal advisor.

Crowley has more than 40 years of experience as a fire protection engineer in Houston and Texas. As an experienced engineer, he is tasked with expanding Coffman’s local client base and building a multidiscipline team.

Crowley is supported by Dave Gramlich, P.E., a senior fire protection engineer. Gramlich is returning to Houston, where his career began after several years leading Coffman’s fire protection and code consulting group in Seattle, Washington.

The Houston office offers fire protection, electrical and low-voltage engineering services in-house, with plans to add full multidiscipline engineering capabilities, including civil, structural, acoustic and mechanical engineering.
