Rimkus

Rimkus is an engineering and technical consulting firm that helps corporations, insurance companies, law firms and government agencies resolve complex claims, accidents and legal disputes. Founded in 1983 as a specialist forensic engineering practice, the company has grown into a global consulting organisation with more than 110 offices and over 1,200 professionals, among them engineers, scientists and technical specialists. Its headquarters are in Houston, Texas.

The firm operates four service lines: forensic consulting, which applies science-based engineering and technical analysis to determine root causes of failures and support claims and litigation; construction management; built environment solutions for complex technical issues in buildings and infrastructure; and human factors support for accident investigation and dispute resolution. Its technical work spans forensic engineering, failure analysis, accident and claims investigation, construction management and human factors.

Rimkus serves clients across insurance, legal services, corporate, government, construction and the wider engineering and built environment sectors. Growth has been pursued in part through strategic acquisitions intended to broaden its expertise and international footprint, a continuation of the technical rigour and client service on which the firm was originally built.
