MWH Global finalises acquisition of Outback Ecology
MWH Global, a strategic consulting, technical engineering and construction services firm for the wet infrastructure sector, has finalised its acquisition of Outback Ecology, an Australian environmental consultancy associated with the natural resources and mining industry for more than 20 years.
MWH first announced its plans to acquire Outback Ecology in March, citing the opportunity to combine MWH current product offerings for the resources and energy industries with Outback Ecology’s specialised services in this area.
More than 70 of Outback Ecology’s employees, who are scientists and specialists, have remained with the company, including Outback Ecology chairman and founder Harley Lacy.
Integration of the two companies has begun. While initially maintaining its identity as Outback Ecology, the organisation will gradually transition its name to MWH.
