Engineering and project management for electric utility transmission and distribution infrastructure
Welty Energy manages ~$500M in active transmission and distribution construction projects across the Midwest and Northeast, working with utilities on work spanning 4kV to 765kV. The stack is dominated by legacy project-management and CAD tools (Primavera P6, Microsoft Project, AutoCAD, MicroStation) with Power BI for visibility—typical of capital-project-heavy firms where scheduling, cost control, and cross-team communication are permanent friction points. The hiring surge is almost entirely engineering-focused (29 of 34 open roles), signaling aggressive project portfolio growth.
Welty Energy is a professional services firm that provides program and project management, transmission line engineering, substation engineering, and construction oversight for electric utilities. The firm works nationally, with particular density in the Midwest and Northeast, managing a multiyear portfolio of capital projects. Core services span the full project lifecycle: conceptual line-routing design, pre-funding approval scoping, detailed engineering, and on-site construction oversight. They operate as an extension of client teams, handling end-to-end delivery across transmission, substation, and distribution work. The company is privately held and headquartered in Ohio.
Heavy reliance on Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project for scheduling, AutoCAD and MicroStation for design, Power BI for project dashboards, and Sage/Oracle Primavera for financial tracking. No recent tech replacements or new platforms in adoption.
Approximately $500 million in construction projects currently under management for electric utilities in the Midwest and Northeast U.S., spanning transmission upgrades, substation work, and distribution line capital projects.
