Expands data center practice and strengthens Pacific Northwest presence.

PARSIPPANY, NJ, Nov 21, 2024 – Langan Engineering & Environmental Services officially announced the acquisition of Navix Engineering, a leading site/civil engineering firm in the data center market. Based in Bellevue, Washington, Navix has provided site/civil engineering in the Pacific Northwest and has grown its highly successful data center practice to support projects in nearly 40 states for hyper-scalers, co-location developers, architects, design-build contractors, and allied consultants. Similarly, Langan has grown its data center land development practice around the country, and the acquisition of Navix augments the firm’s standing as a go-to consultant in the industry.

“Paul Manzer and the Navix team have built a platinum reputation in the Pacific Northwest and beyond, especially in the highly competitive and rapidly growing data center market,” said David T. Gockel, president/CEO, Langan. “Adding Navix to Langan strengthens both firms, and we are incredibly excited to integrate our forces to bring unsurpassed value to our clients in the Pacific Northwest and the data center market throughout the United States.”

“Many firms have pursued Navix, but Langan has the best cultural alignment to provide growth opportunities for our staff,” said Paul Manzer, president, Navix. “On the business front, we have been seeking a partner that could help us support projects around the country, and we have found that in Langan. This relationship also allows us to bring a greater suite of services to our clients.”


By joining forces, multiple synergies are created that will benefit clients and staff from both firms. Navix clients will stand to benefit from Langan’s environmental and geotechnical engineering services, as well as other technical disciplines including traffic engineering, survey/GIS, and landscape architecture. Langan will also provide industry-leading technical and career development training to Navix staff.
