AUSTIN, TX — Atlas Technical Consultants, Inc. (Atlas), an infrastructure and environmental services provider, announces the award of an $8-million contract from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) for Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) services. This five-year contract will support the TxDOT’s Odessa District, which includes Andrews, Crane, Ector, Loving, Martin, Midland, Pecos, Reeves, Terrell, Upton, Ward, and Winkler.

“We are extremely proud of our continued partnership with TxDOT and that we will continue to provide quality CEI services as we have since 2016,” said Atlas Chief Growth Officer, Priya Jain. “Atlas’ investment and growth in providing quality assurance for CEI services is a testament to our focus on helping our clients safely improve and maintain critical infrastructure projects, especially within the nation’s largest energy production zone.”

Under TxDOT’s oversight, Atlas will assist in managing construction of specific operations and provide Engineer Led Inspection Teams (ELIT) to perform various CEI services. It is expected at the time of the solicitation that work will be primarily in the Odessa district, but work may be required in other districts.
