16 Mar 2020 Crow Group’s John Doyle earns national certification

John Doyle, P.E., with the Crow Group, has successfully completed the Design-Build Institute of America’s (DBIA) comprehensive education, training and certification testing program to achieve the design-build industry’s designation as a nationally certified Associate Design-Build Professional.™ 

Doyle is an Engineering Project Manager at Crow Group. He is a licensed professional engineer with more than 15 years of experience working as a civil engineer. His area of expertise is environmental engineering and water/wastewater design.  

He holds a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Louisiana Tech and is a member of the National Society of Professional Engineers. He also was recently approved for his Professional Engineer comity license in Mississippi, permitting him to offer engineering services to Crow’s growing list of clients in that state.

“I am excited to add this certification to my resume and look forward to helping this project delivery method grow in popularity and to exceed our client’s expectations for ease and value when undertaking a major investment,” said Doyle.

“Design-build is the wave of the future for the construction and engineering industries,” said Crow Group President Brian Rohlman. “The whole process of delivering a client’s design and construction project under one contract saves our clients time, money and headaches. The DBIA will be a great resource for our firm as we continue to provide that value-added service to our clients. With John completing his certification, we now have three Associate Design-Build Professionals on our team.”

DBIA Certification is the nation’s only measurable standard of an individual’s knowledge of the Design-Build Done Right™ principles vital to successful project delivery. By completing these requirements, which touch on all aspects of design-build, candidates earn the right to display “Assoc. DBIA” after their names, identifying them to design-build end-users and the industry at large as experienced design and construction professionals with a firm understanding of design-build project delivery.

DBIA Executive Director/CEO Lisa Washington said, “DBIA’s Designated Design-Build Professional™ certification program has grown exponentially over the years, mirroring the growth of the entire design-build industry. In fact, many public and private owner solicitations now expressly encourage the inclusion of team members with DBIA™ Certification in their expanding number of design-build projects. DBIA is proud to offer the industry’s gold standard in education and to continue to certify record numbers of dedicated design-build professionals each year.” 

Three to six years of substantial design and construction experience is an additional prerequisite for Designated Associate Design-Build Professional™ certification. Maintaining the credential requires a minimum of 24 hours of continuing education credit every two years. For more information about the Design-Build Institute of America, visit dbia.org.
