Krebs LaSalle LeMieux Consultants, Inc. is pleased to announce to our clients and friends that after 75 years in business our firm has been acquired by G.E.C., Inc.. (GEC) out of Baton Rouge, a leading provider of engineering, planning and consulting services, and listed as one of Engineering News Record’s Top 500 Design Firms.

The acquisition will greatly expand the capabilities that we offer our clients as well as the resources from which we regularly draw (previously our company consisted of 50 employees, whereas GEC/KL will now consist of well over 200).  GEC and Krebs have a partnership dating back to the 1990’s.  Most significantly, the firms work side by side as the Consulting Engineers for the Greater New Orleans Expressway Commission, providing a full array of services including engineering and program management for the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway.

Shelby P. LaSalle, Jr., Chief Executive Officer of Krebs LaSalle will serve as an Executive Vice President at GEC and GEC will retain all current KLL offices (Metairie, Mandeville, Baton Rouge and Gulfport).  Mr. LaSalle quotes, “We were looking for an opportunity to grow and expand our firm, and GEC is the vehicle we choose to make ourselves bigger and better.”
