Kleinfelder Group is a leading multidisciplinary engineering firm.

Kleinfelder Group (“Kleinfelder”), headquartered in San Diego, California, is a leading multidisciplinary engineering firm that provides mission critical design, testing and program management services to clients across an array of industries. The company has over 60 offices across the United States, Canada and Australia.

Wind Point acquired Kleinfelder in November 2018. Our value creation plan includes growing the platform organically and through acquisitions, as well as improving utilization and driving other operational improvements.   

Wind Point acquired Kleinfelder in partnership with incumbent CEO George Pierson and other members of management. Prior to Kleinfelder, Mr. Pierson was President and CEO of Parsons Brinckerhoff, a global engineering and program management firm with 14,000 employees in 150 offices worldwide. Wind Point previously worked with Mr. Pierson in his capacity as a member of the Board of Directors of RailWorks Corporation, a Wind Point VI portfolio company also in the specialty contracting industry. In September 2019, Kleinfelder implemented its leadership succession plan by promoting Louis Armstrong from President to CEO and transitioning Mr. Pierson to Executive Board Chair to focus on M&A and strategic initiatives of the value creation plan.
