Engineering Excellence Since 1983
At the Kent companies, we specialize in the performance of materials, building systems, vehicles and equipment (cranes, material handling, industrial, heavy) with the capacity to perform a wide range of inspections, tests, simulations, and investigative procedures in the Pacific Northwest, Hawaii and around the world.
We live in a complex and imperfect world, where perfect people and perfect objectivity do not exist, but the truth does. Our clients are recipients of those imperfections, seeking answers and solutions to the wide range of technical problems they face. Employing sound science and engineering, as well as deep expertise, we endeavor to tell and reveal the truth to those we serve through inspection, root cause, analysis, design, architectural and building system diagnostics.

Our Proven 4-Step Process
- We first identify the problem.
- Assemble a team of experts who have the technical knowledge necessary to investigate the failure.
- With the team in place, we begin our investigation, following careful research protocols.
- Once we’ve discovered the cause of the failure and the “why” behind it, we report our findings in the clearest, truest way possible.
