Michael Baker International is a Pittsburgh-based engineering and consulting firm founded in 1940 - beginning, as company history notes, in a small hotel room in Rochester, Pennsylvania. More than 85 years later, it operates from over 90 offices across the United States, with project work extending to international and overseas engagements, including partnerships with organisations such as Bridges to Prosperity that reach isolated communities worldwide.
The firm organises its work across three verticals: Infrastructure, covering roads, bridges, tunnels, mass transit, airports, water treatment plants, pipelines, environmental restoration, and construction; Integrated Design and Advisory (IDA), which combines architecture and engineering design with strategic advisory services; and GovTech, focused on technology solutions for public-sector clients. Its technical breadth spans civil, transportation, water and wastewater, pipeline, and environmental engineering, as well as architecture and government technology.
Michael Baker International serves government agencies and public-sector clients across the full infrastructure lifecycle - from planning and design through construction and advisory. The firm's work includes domestic transportation and water infrastructure as well as specialised overseas construction projects.
