BUSINESS NEWS LYNCH MYKINS CELEBRATES FIVE YEARS OF GROWTH Lynch Mykins, a full-service structural engineering firm, announced its five-year anniversary by releasing a Flash-mob dance video showcasing the company’s unique culture, diverse workforce, and mad dance skills. Since current owners acquired Stroud Pence in 2017 and rebranded as Lynch Mykins, the company has grown revenue 2,000 percent by focusing on personal growth of their team members in the areas of emotional intelligence, communication, mindfulness, and adaptability – skills that aren’t taught in engineering school but are surely needed in the AEC industry. “When we started Lynch Mykins, I wanted to build a different kind of engineering firm,” said Anna Lynch P.E., CEO of Lynch Mykins. “Our focus would be on people, culture and cultivating the essential power skills, or soft skills, in our engineers that we felt were critical to adapting more quickly and thriving as the economy, our industry, and the future of technology in our work continues to evolve.” “We’ve done federal work with Lynch Mykins for years across the country and plan on sticking with them for the long term,” said Tim Williams, project manager with RLF. “We’ve collaborated with Lynch Mykins

on dozens of projects throughout the Southeast for more than 13 years,” said Chris Carlson, SVP at Whiting Turner Contracting Company, a long-standing partner of Lynch Mykins. “Anna’s dedication to Lynch Mykins’ success in just a very short five years is absolutely staggering. Congratulations to everyone on the Lynch Mykins team for making this come to fruition.” Lynch Mykins has a bright future, especially since it exited the pandemic with a talented team, record revenue, diverse customers, and a growing portfolio. “It has always been my vision to see Lynch Mykins become one of nation’s most successful and trusted structural engineering firms. To achieve this reputation with a team that puts people first, values diversity, and truly collaborates with its customers is a life dream realized for me,” added Lynch. “I couldn’t have done it without my Lynch Mykins family of engineers and staff.” Lynch Mykins provides full-service structural engineering services to a wide range of industries, including corporate campuses, high-rise, emergency response, entertainment and arts, federal, healthcare, higher education, restoration, hospitality, K-12, libraries, life science, commercial, and sports and recreation.
