We're thrilled to announce that KC Harvey Environmental LLC (KC Harvey) has been honored with the prestigious 2023 EBJ Business Achievement Award by the Environmental Business Journal (EBJ) for outstanding business performance. This marks the second consecutive year that KC Harvey has received this recognition, reaffirming our commitment to excellence and environmental stewardship.

In 2023, KC Harvey experienced remarkable growth, achieving a 28% organic growth rate. This growth contributed to a three-year trajectory that exceeded 110%, a testament to our dedication to building a robust business while championing sustainable practices. Our success was made possible through strategic expansions into Salt Lake City, Utah, Idaho, and North Dakota as well as the alignment of sister companies, BEM Systems and Elos Environmental, under the Bernhard Capital-backed Environmental Systems Group (ESG).

Our expanded capabilities, particularly in ecological and earth science expertise, have allowed us to offer a comprehensive range of services, including remediation, PFAS management, coastal/wetland science, and advanced software solutions. With access to over 180 additional experts through the combined ESG companies, we have been able to serve a diverse customer base spanning traditional energy producers to alternative energy ventures, such as carbon sequestration, wind energy, and hydro pump storage.

“Our strategic expansions and client-centric approach has contributed to our growth,” said KC Harvey CEO Rio Franzman.  “However, it’s our people that make this all possible. Our talented team has deep connections within the industry, acute understanding of client needs, and knows the importance of fostering strong client relationships.

Looking ahead to 2024, KC Harvey remains focused on leveraging our expertise and expanding our offerings to meet the evolving needs of our clients. With a strong emphasis on sustainability and environmental responsibility, we aim to continue delivering high-quality consulting services while prioritizing employee satisfaction and fostering meaningful partnerships within the industry.

The recognition from EBJ serves as a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire KC Harvey team. As we celebrate this achievement, we remain steadfast in our commitment to driving positive environmental impact and delivering innovative solutions to our clients.”
