SALEM Engineering Group, Inc. (SALEM) began as a one-man operation in 2003, incorporated in Fresno, California, by Mr. R. "Sammy" Salem. Fifteen years prior to founding SALEM, Mr. Salem began his engineering career as a staff engineer for an established Central California firm, and over the years, worked for two other well-known Central Valley-based engineering firms where he gained practical experience while taking on increasingly more challenging technical and supervisory roles at his previous employer's most active branch office in Southern California.
After its founding, SALEM's local reputation for economic and high-quality engineering services spread quickly. As a relatively young company, SALEM has already successfully retained several large long-term contracts to provide Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering, as well as Construction Inspection and Materials Testing services, with several nationally-recognized retail chains.
As SALEM's local success grew exponentially, business demands from throughout the State of California necessitated an expansion of territory. In 2007, SALEM opened two regional offices, one in Bakersfield and the other in Rancho Cucamonga (Ontario), California. A fourth regional office in Stockton, California, was established in 2009. We now have additional new regional offices located in San Jose, California and Dallas,Texas which covers the Southern United States.
Currently employing over 78 personnel - including Professional and Geotechnical Engineers, Professional and Engineering Geologists, Hydrogeologists, Registered Environmental Assessors, Special Inspectors and Field Technicians, and Complementary Laboratory Staff - SALEM continues to grow as a result of its commitment to its clients and employees to be ethical, innovative, responsive, and single-minded in its goal to be the go-to source for competent, reliable, cost-effective engineering solutions and services.
