Shouldn't there be some discussion of the major projects, including large successes and large failures (MN bridge collapse) that this company had? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andythechef (talk • contribs) 20:42, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You mean like the part that mentions the MN bridge collapse? --Golbez (talk) 20:55, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there this penchant for redirecting old companies into whatever they've been aborbed/morphed into? For instance, Dames & Moore was its own entity for years, with a history and projects and... existence. Now it's just a footnote to URS. This is not being very true to the idea of preserving information.Cellmaker (talk) 08:35, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
