Our Background
A&S Engineers (A&S) opened its doors for business in May 1999. Then owners, Jim Ainsworth and Dan Sherwood joined forces after accumulating over 60 years of combined engineering service experience. Their vision? To provide the highest level of personalized service to its clients. Later that year A&S acquired selected assets from ICF Kaiser/Georgia Wilson, Inc. In this transaction, A&S assumed numerous water district clients including two regional wastewater treatment plants and two regional water plants.
A&S has a dedicated Land Development group that provides developers and water district clients in preparing new developments with water, sanitary sewer and drainage services.
Today, A&S has grown to over 60 employees including experienced licensed professional engineers, numerous graduate engineers, and full complement of support staff including CAD designers, field personnel and administrative staff. Currently, A&S is the Engineer for over 30 municipalities.
