    In celebration of its 2nd anniversary, Advanced Engineering Solutions hosted a "Fiesta" Open House on Wed., April 30th, from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm.

    The Structural and forensic engineering firm in invited numerous clients,  vendors, neighbors, professional associates, friends and family for a festive luncheon. Bold colors, sparkling confetti and bright decorations complemented the mouth-watering buffet menu, which included chicken and beef fajitas, tamales, rice, beans, guacamole, queso, and a bevy of desserts and beverages.  Caterer Charlene Nino deserved every compliment she received for providing the cheerful decor and divine meal.

    When San Antonio Construction News asked principal Tana M. Koudelka, P.E. if the firm had met projections from tow years ago, Tana affirmed that it had.

    "We have been well-received in the community and for that we are grateful. in Addition to serving new clients, we are growing as a result of client, referrals and repeat business. We're honored when a client recommends our work to someone else," Tana added.

    Two years ago the AES staff included Tana, James Jones, P.E., business manager Bob Condit, office manger Tracey Winsett, and engineering technicians Chris Scow and Curtis Hastings. Since then, the firm added Shannon Casey as administrative assistant, UTSA engineering student Martin Hernandez, and Engineering-in-Training Randy French.

    Tana spoke of two notable projects in which AES staffers were proud to participate. 

    " Over the holidays, our staff collected gifts and funds for three families in support of the Angel Tree Project.  We all felt very good about sharing our bounty with others who are less fortunate."

    On the professional front, the City of San Antonio hired AES when the Karotkin Building facade collapsed last December in downtown San Antonio.

    " We were honored that the City trusted us to conduct forensic investigations on its behalf," Tana said. "It's work that we're very capable of performing."

    Advanced Engineering Solutions markets its engineering services to commercial contractors, homebuilders, insurance companies, homeowners, and municipal entities. Happy birthday, AES!
