Friday, November 10, 2017

McCOOK, Neb. — After starting as a one-man enterprise in 2009, a McCook-based engineering firm has grown into an international company with six staff members and offices in both McCook and Lincoln.

The company — Engineering International, Inc. — was launched by Jeff Tidyman, a professional architectural engineer, upon his return to Southwest Nebraska following his second tour of duty in Iraq.

With Tidyman directing efforts from his second-floor office in the Keystone Business Center in McCook, Engineering International’s business has grown to the point that the firm now serves clients regionally and internationally.

“Our main area of focus are the Midwestern states of Nebraska, Kansas and Colorado, but we also have done architectural engineering work for companies in five foreign lands,” Tidyman said.

“The growth of our business is the result of the trust placed in us by the people we serve and by the great team we have been fortunate to put together at Engineering International,” the company founder and president said. The firm’s focus is buildings and building systems.

Locally and regionally, recent examples of Engineering International projects include the Norris Alley gathering space, the McCook Christian Church sanctuary expansion, the Carpenter-Breland Funeral Home expansion, the Chase County Schools bus barn, the Chase County office building, the Anytime Fitness design and buildout, the Furnas County Courthouse renovation, the Next Generation warehouse project, and the McCook Memorial Auditorium feasibility study.

In addition to Tidyman, the president, the Engineering International staff in McCook has grown to include his wife, Patty Tidyman, business manager and design consultant; Adam Powers, business administrator; and Matthew Clause, project design and management.

Engineering International’s Lincoln office is staffed by Ahmad Al-Shemmeri, a licensed architect, and Morgan Jones, an engineering technician.
