KCW Engineering Technologies Inc. QUARTERFIELD CENTER 810 Landmark Drive, Suite 215, and 808 Landmark Drive, Suite 223, Glen Burnie, MD 21061 410.768.7700 www.kcw-et.com
The firm handles civil engineering, telecommunications, land surveying, electrical engineering, construction stakeout, land utilities and more. KCW concentrates its purpose on three pillars: clients, designs and employees. The result is high-quality, professional services for each client, in each project, at each phase. The firm fully grasps the power it has to create better communities and opportunities, and this understanding permeates every part of the business, from daily operations, to relationships with employees and clients, to mentoring upcoming engineers and designers. “Our projects deliberately focus on the pillars that contribute to a community’s diversity — including affordable housing, schools, community centers, recreation and major redevelopments,” Kimberly Groves, president and CEO at KCW, said. With all of this action happening under one roof, KCW needed the ideal location in Glen Burnie and saw that St. John Properties stood out from the competition in terms of accommodating rapid growth.
The business park’s green space has been especially useful — staff members go for walks or take lunch outside, and they participate in team-building events or employee appreciation days, complete with yard games. The green space improves staff’s health, morale and productivity. KCW’s current St. John Properties location is just 20 minutes from Baltimore and 45 minutes from Washington, D.C. “This location allows us to easily travel to projects and stay involved in the groundbreakings, grand openings and community engagement that remains very important to us,” Groves said. “Many of the great relationships we enjoy today are the product of many years working together in this area. We continue to help grow the communities we’ve always served through our projects and partnerships throughout Baltimore; Washington, D.C.; and the surrounding counties,” allowing the firm to continue influencing the industry and community as a women- owned and operated business.
“KCW has experienced phenomenal growth over the last 15 years with St. John Properties,” Melissa Walker, executive vice president and CFO, said. “The St. John team has gone above and beyond to recognize our growing pains and accommodate our needs. Their design team worked with us to not only update and modify our existing space that we’ve had for more than a decade, but to help blend the additional spaces that we leased during KCW’s growth.” The owners of the firm were raised in Anne Arundel County, so they know the area, and are happy to work there and enjoy raising their families there. “We are proud to own and operate a business headquartered in our home town,” Walker said, “with access to the city where our company was founded, and the surrounding cities that house so many of our clients and vendors.” In fact, the firm is so impressed with St. John Properties that they lease more than 16,000 square feet within Quarterfield Center.
