“Over the last 15 years, I’ve worked with Precis on many large- and small-scale projects within the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Aside from the project staff being very responsive and easy to work with, one of the things I value the most is that their designs are both innovative and practical. Precis is a valued and trusted teaming partner that I am proud to work with on any project.”

James Obermeier | Retired President CYMA Builders & Construction Managers

"Working with Precis Engineering has been an absolute pleasure. Their deep technical expertise is matched only by their genuine care for the people they work with. It’s rare to find an engineering firm that combines precision with such a personal touch, but Precis does just that. Their collaborative spirit, clear communication, and commitment to excellence made every step of the process seamless and well-coordinated. We couldn’t be happier with the results and the relationships we’ve built along the way."

James McFadden, PMP | Operations Manager US Piping, Inc.

“Since 2018, Precis has been a key partner. I have been fortunate to have Precis on several of my renovation and renewal projects. Precis has performed quality building assessments, designed and engineered mechanical system solutions for various projects on our multiple campuses. Precis has partnered with our team of in-house engineers, shop service personnel, and department clients to deliver quality construction documents and construction administration of installations throughout the project delivery process. I would highly recommend Precis to any potential clients who have complex engineering needs.”

Stephen J. Carrow | Senior Manager Duke Facilities Management, Office of Project Management

“I could not have found a more honest, diligent, and competent company to work with. Throughout my 40-year career with several major pharmaceutical companies, I have worked with Precis personnel and found them to be easy to work with. Their project solutions are always complete with manageable schedules and deadlines. In the course of 20+ years of a very effective relationship, there has not been a time that I did not feel completely at ease with the work I was receiving. . . They are a good group of hard-working people that become your friends and a sounding board if you have an issue that has not quite made the project level yet. They give honest opinions and ideas that you can trust. In a few words, they are the best.”

Thomas Guellich | President Walcat Mechanical

“When we have a client with a need for technical space, the Precis team is on our short list. We rely on Precis for their expertise in planning and engineering of highly complex spaces. They can do simple projects, too, but they really shine with biotech, pharma/life sciences, manufacturing, and other industrial spaces. We love their independence, principal-level involvement, and commitment to excellence. We have been working with Precis for 15+ years and look forward to many more.”

Professional engagement + advancement

Everyone at Precis is encouraged to seek opportunities to learn, grow, network, and find personal and professional fulfillment. We believe this makes us stronger as individuals and as a team.

Outside of work, Precis staff members teach, coach, volunteer, and serve in their communities. Within the professional realm, we maintain active involvement and leadership roles in industry organizations including the American Institute of Architects (AIA), Engineers’ Club of Philadelphia, International District Energy Association (IDEA), International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE), International Society of Automation (ISA), Lean Construction Institute (LCI), Society of Women Engineers, U.S. Green Building Council, and many more.

If you are looking to join an award-winning firm, work on exciting and challenging projects, and be part of a corporate culture that makes employees feel engaged, supported, and motivated to grow both personally and professionally, then Precis could be the right fit for you. We are always seeking talented candidates at all levels of employment.

Giving back + having fun

Precis gives back to the communities in which we live and work by participating in various charitable events throughout the year. Our staff comes together to make a difference in the lives of others and have a little fun while doing it – from food and clothing drives to chair hockey tournaments and fun runs (even one that involves eating a dozen doughnuts at the end of the race). Precis also fields an annual team in the Greater Philadelphia Architects and Engineers Softball League.

Since 2020, Precis has hosted the Samuel R. Colucci, Jr. Memorial Golf Outing in memory of our dear colleague and in support of the organization founded in his honor, Cancer Legacy in Action Projects (CLAP).
