R&M CONSULTANTS, INC. (R&M) has opened a new office in Wasilla, expanding the firm’s footprint in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley and strengthening its ability to serve clients and communities in one of Alaska’s fastest-growing regions.

The Wasilla office supports R&M’s multi-discipline services, including engineering, planning, surveying, geosciences, environmental services and construction support. Establishing a permanent presence in the Mat-Su improves local responsiveness, enhances collaboration with clients and partners, and positions the firm to better support infrastructure, land development and community projects throughout the region.

“R&M has always been about investing in people and the relationships that knit Alaska’s communities together,” said Len Story, PLS, Chief Executive Officer of R&M. “As someone who has lived and worked across this state for many years, I’ve seen firsthand how strong local partnerships make projects better. Expanding our presence in the Mat-Su — and strengthening our commitment to every Alaska community we serve — helps us stay closely connected to our clients, while also attracting and supporting local professionals who live and work right here in the Valley. That local expertise is invaluable, and it’s what allows us to deliver practical, lasting solutions rooted in Alaska’s unique conditions.”

The new office is fully operational and staffed, providing a local base for project teams working throughout the Mat-Su Valley and surrounding communities. Jason Johnston, PE, serves as the primary point-of-contact for the Wasilla office. He is a civil engineer with experience supporting transportation, site development and infrastructure projects across Alaska and works closely with R&M’s multi-discipline teams to coordinate local efforts and respond to client needs.
