Did you know the Midwest is home to more employee-owned companies than any other region in the country? 📍

We are proud to be one of them. From the lab to the job site, our employee-owners bring an owner's mindset to every project and every community we serve.

We are rooted in the Upper Midwest, with work that stretches across the country and beyond.

Employee ownership is more than a business structure. It is a mindset. 🚧🏗️

It shows up in the questions our team members ask, the care they put into every test and report, and the pride they take in seeing a project through. When you own a piece of the company, you think differently about every piece of the work.

That is the power of employee ownership.

Meet the Owners Monday! 👋 October is Employee Ownership Month, and we are celebrating the people who make AET what it is. Every Monday this month, we will introduce you to one of our employee-owners and share, in their own words, what being an owner means to them.

This week, meet Ivanka Woodell, Petrographer at AET. Ivanka examines concrete, rock, and other construction materials under the microscope to help our clients understand what is happening beneath the surface.

Read what employee ownership means to Ivanka, and check back next Monday to meet another member of our team!

Happy Employee Ownership Month! 🎉

At AET, ownership shows up in the everyday details: the extra check in the lab, the safety conversation before a shift, the follow-up call that makes a client's day easier. When everyone thinks like an owner, it creates a culture of accountability, collaboration, and long-term thinking that strengthens our team, our clients, our communities, and our future.

Throughout October, we will be celebrating what it means to be employee-owned and recognizing the people who make our success possible. Follow along!

AET is headed to Kansas City for the Fall 2026 National Concrete Consortium (NC²) meeting!

NC² brings state DOTs and industry together to talk through the most pressing issues in concrete pavement. It is also where members pinpoint research needs, shape pooled fund projects, and share new technology.

On Tuesday, September 29, Gerard Moulzolf will present "A Petrographer's Perspective on Curing Concrete." His talk is part of the afternoon session on placing, finishing, and curing concrete. Curing has a big effect on how long concrete lasts, and Gerard will share what petrographic examination shows about curing in the field.

Gerard and Jussara Tanesi will both be at the meeting. If you are attending, come say hello. They would love to talk about concrete durability, petrography, and the challenges your agency is working on.

📍 The Westin Kansas City at Crown Center
📅 September 29 to October 1, 2026
🎤 Gerard's session: Tuesday, September 29, at 1:00 pm

School is back in session! 🍎🚸

From elementary schools to college campuses, fall means busier mornings and evenings on the road. Crossing guards are back, bus routes are running, and campus towns are full of walkers, bikes, and scooters.

At AET, we lead with safety, and that doesn't stop when the workday ends. Take a look at our essential driving reminders to help everyone get to class, work, and back home safely.

Safety is a shared responsibility. What is your top tip for staying alert during the back-to-school rush? Share it in the comments! 👇

Today, we pause to remember and honor the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the countless families, friends, and communities forever changed by that day.

As we commemorate 25 years since 9/11, we reflect on the courage of the first responders, the resilience of our nation, and the extraordinary acts of service and sacrifice that emerged in the face of tragedy. We remember the victims, honor the heroes, and carry forward the spirit of unity, compassion, and hope that continues to inspire us every day.

She Builds Wisconsin returned to the Chippewa Valley! 🏗️

We were proud to join our fellow engineers and contractors to take part in the 2nd annual She Builds Wisconsin Camp, powered by the Associated General Contractors of Wisconsin and Market & Johnson, Inc. Over three days, 40 girls in grades 6-8 got hands-on with construction, architecture, and engineering through projects, field trips, and guidance from industry pros.

A huge thank you to Brett Giebel and our Chippewa Falls team for demonstrating soils and materials testing and showing these campers what goes into every safe, successful build. Watching our team spark that curiosity and confidence in the next generation of builders was the best part of camp.

Working together to build a more certain world starts with moments like these.
