In 1909, A.E. McMahon founded a civil engineering firm, working out of a small office in downtown Menasha, Wisconsin, designing the infrastructure that was essential to the growth of communities located in the Fox River valley. With a focus on improving the quality and safety of core municipal infrastructure, Robert McMahon, stepped into his father’s role as the company’s president and gradually grew the business.
Today, President Paul E. Benedict leads the company. Through the efforts of a dedicated staff and innovative management team, the company has expanded in size and services, opened regional offices, and established affiliate companies. The corporate headquarters is currently located in the McMahon Business Park in Neenah, Wisconsin.
Since 1909, the firm has set the pace in an industry that demands its professionals respond to ever-changing trends. Environment, technology, economics, and human behavior all influence how we do what we do. One thing has always remained the same…from the very beginning; McMAHON has been committed to designing for a sustainable future and providing innovative solutions, while placing client’s needs first to attain their satisfaction and trust.
