I am pleased to take this opportunity to recommend Applied Technology and Management, Inc. My experience with Sam Phlegar and staff goes back over two decades during the multi-phased redevelopment of the City of Charleston owned City Marina. As Principal of the redevelopment group, we retained ATM to support us in numerous marine engineering endeavors. I can wholeheartedly recommend ATM a very effective and professional engineering firm and as proven experts in lowcountry marine engineering.

The Town of Mount Pleasant hired ATM to complete various assignments over the last twenty years, including the recent Crab Bank Sedimentation Study, a project designed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. ATM's comprehensive study resulted in the Town providing substantive comments to USACE. Negotiations continue to further ameliorate impacts using ATM's work as the foundation for discussion. It is my pleasure to serve as a reference for Applied Technology & Management, Inc.'s work on this study and to elaborate on our positive working experience with the firm.

I cannot recount the times that our partners, your consultant contemporaries and others have confided to us their pleasure in having [ATM] on our projects teams. You add a level of experience and camaraderie that makes us want you on our projects, regardless of location. The engineering expertise that ATM brings to a team is world-class. Keep up the excellent work and I look forward to our next adventure together.

As the owner's representative on the revetment repair effort, I can say that our experience with ATM has been very positive. Good consultants integrate seamlessly with your team, with no divergence between their interests and your interests as the client. The depth of their expertise was essential to the successful completion of the project...ATM was the right choice, and one that proved itself as challenges arose through the course of the project.”
