EMG Is Now A Bureau Veritas Group Company

EMG is pleased to announce that the company has been acquired by Bureau Veritas (“BV”), the world’s leader in testing, inspection, and certification. With a rich history spanning nearly 200 years, BV has a vast network of people and offices across the globe. In the United States, BV has 6,000 employees working in 129 offices and labs.

With this transaction, EMG, a Bureau Veritas Company, takes a meaningful step forward in becoming the most accurate, reliable, consistent and timely provider of technical assessments and project management services in the United States. While this is certainly big news, the impact to our organization and our clients will be minimal. Specifically, there will be little to no changes to our operations, leadership, offices, or employees. EMG will continue to be your trusted partner and continue to go above and beyond on every project, every time.

Why BV?

EMG’s success has been fueled by our engaged, dedicated employees and commitment to delivering exceptional customer service. BV operates much the same way. This transaction will open-up new opportunities for EMG, such as greater scale, an international platform, complimentary services, industry best practices, and enhanced technology platforms. EMG will be the anchor for BV’s Building and Infrastructure (“B&I”) division and driver of growth. EMG is excited to help BV create a stronger brand and grow its business across our nation and beyond. Please learn more about BV here.

What will change?

EMG’s customers will experience very little to no changes. You will continue to work with the same people you’ve trusted and depended upon to achieve your company’s goals. Again, there will be minimal operational changes. This is an exciting time for EMG and we are proud to be a Bureau Veritas company.

Please feel free to reach out to your primary EMG contact or to me directly if you have questions or concerns. We will be hosting a webinar to discuss the EMG / BV transaction in more detail should you have an interest in joining. Please be on the look-out for that invitation in the coming days.
