Aviation and civil engineering design firm with MEP and infrastructure expertise
AVCON is a 51–200 person engineering services firm founded in 1988, headquartered in Orlando. The tech stack is firmly rooted in domain-specific CAD and utilities-modeling tools (AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Bentley, WaterCAD, EPANET) with project-management (Procore) and enterprise finance (Deltek Vantage), but no apparent adoption of modern cloud-native or AI-adjacent tools — a pattern common in legacy-heavy design firms. The engineering-dominant hiring mix (39 of 44 active roles) paired with stated pain points around proposal production efficiency and budget/schedule management suggests internal friction between delivery capacity and back-office operations.
AVCON delivers engineering planning, design, and construction-management services across aviation, civil infrastructure, and building systems. Core specialties span airport master planning and runway/taxiway lighting; MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) and structural engineering; utilities and stormwater design; and highway and bridge projects. The firm operates as a full-service consultancy, handling both design and on-site construction support and inspection. Founded in 1988 and based in Orlando, AVCON serves mid-market and infrastructure clients primarily across the United States, positioning itself as a large-firm resource set with small-firm client responsiveness.
AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Bentley, Revit, and WaterCAD form the core design stack. Project delivery runs on Procore; financials on Deltek Vantage. EPANET and Mathcad support specialized utilities and structural analysis.
Primary focus areas include airport development, runway and taxiway lighting systems, stormwater modeling, and airport engineering. Recent project work centers on lighting infrastructure, navaids, and airport construction management.
