About Us

The engineering industry has changed. Gone are the days of discipline silos, generous margins, and a singular focus on construction. Excellent project delivery requires fresh thinking, and a willingness to adopt new approaches.

After each spending over a decade in engineering, James Doherty and Keith Peters know this challenge all too well. Sharing a commitment to finding new and better ways to solve problems, they founded Axia Engineering. Axia is based on a new paradigm of engineering, built on the three pillars of value, innovation, and integration.

At Axia Engineering, we are not just trying to adapt for a new reality. We were built for that reality from the ground up.
