Garver launches Enterprise Solutions Team

Since its founding more than a century ago, Garver has prioritized responding to the needs of communities across the country as well as the infrastructure industry as a whole. That means delivering designs for new and improved highways, airport runways, water and wastewater treatment plants, and more, in addition to identifying the most creative and efficient ways to execute the full life cycle of those projects.

With that innovative spirit in mind, Garver is leveraging decades of experience and expertise to continue to provide the industry and agencies across the country with the services they need to deliver the most critical infrastructure solutions.

Garver’s Enterprise Solutions Team expands the necessary tools already developed by Garver across a variety of sectors, to streamline and more efficiently execute project processes from the planning stages all the way through construction. The team will be led by Director of Enterprise Solutions Jerry Holder, PE, who has more than 35 years of industry experience, including the last 10 years as Garver’s Director of Transportation. During that time, he has led major infrastructure projects for clients across the country, including program management projects in Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas that total more than $20 billion.

“As we enter an unprecedented period for our industry, it is more important than ever that the tools needed to design, deliver, and maintain our critical infrastructure are available to communities and agencies nationwide,” Holder said. “We know that DOTs, municipalities, water utilities, airports, and others will be facing big decisions soon, and this team has been custom built to identify and provide those answers.”

Under Garver’s Enterprise Solutions umbrella will be services that help guide a project through every phase, including analyzing financial feasibility, identifying and implementing the right delivery method, scheduling assistance for complex infrastructure programs, the tools needed to preserve and manage capital assets, and more. These services will be provided by the most qualified engineers, business consultants, project managers, and industry professionals, all intent on creating the most innovative process improvements.

“In recent years, we’ve really begun to focus more on providing innovative technology solutions to our clients,” President and CEO Brock Hoskins said. “We know that demand is increasing for these services, and we’ve had tremendous positive performance feedback from our clients we’ve been serving over the past 10 years.”

Leading Garver Transportation will be Brent Schniers, PE. A member of Garver’s Management Committee since 2019, Schniers has more than 25 years of industry experience, working with DOTs and municipalities across the country. He has been with Garver since 2006 and most recently has been leading Garver’s transportation efforts in Oklahoma, which led to the Gilcrease Expressway project and others with the Oklahoma Department of Transportation, the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority, and various municipalities.
