Michael J. Obergfell, PE, has been appointed President of USI Consultants, Inc. after 26 years with the firm. Mike will lead the next generation of USI to new levels of experience and service. USI will continue their dedication to clients in making Indiana truly the Crossroads of America.

Mike has accepted this position from Philip D. Beer II, PE, PS, FACEC. After 32 years as an executive of USI, Phil will complete his final year with the company as acting CEO.

“As Phil transitions into retirement at the end of 2024, I want to thank him for his service to USI. Besides being one of the best bridge engineers I’ve had the privilege to work with, Phil has always been the levelheaded advisor that has kept us on the right track,” said Obergfell. Phil was a key player in expanding USI from exclusively a surveying firm into a full-service civil engineering company.

“My hope for the future of USI is that everyone who comes after me remembers that what we do here is to help people above anything else. We just use engineering as our tool to do that,” said Beer.
