Pape-Dawson, one of the nation’s leading civil engineering and professional services firms, is proud to announce that Eberly & Associates has rebranded and is now operating as Pape-Dawson.

Since joining Pape-Dawson in 2025, the Eberly and Pape-Dawson teams have collaborated closely to align resources, processes, and systems to provide clients with expanded capabilities and resources in the Southeast and beyond. With Georgia roots dating back to 1982, Eberly’s local knowledge, relationships, and established client trust bring a unique advantage to project teams.

The group’s experience includes work on some of Atlanta’s most recognizable and transformative developments, including the iconic Ponce City Market, 1105 West Peachtree—home to Google’s Southeast headquarters—and Correll Pavilion at Grady Hospital. Pape-Dawson has nine offices across Georgia. The firm took its inaugural step into the state in 2024 and most recently strengthened its local presence through the acquisition of Gaskins + LeCraw.

“As we officially unify under the Pape-Dawson name, our priority is to preserve and build upon Eberly’s legacy while bringing added support to our employees and clients,” says Cara Tackett, Chief Operating Officer, Expanding Markets. “We aren’t just changing the name. We are strengthening our commitment to our Georgia clients and communities.”

“This is a milestone that celebrates our past while heavily investing in our future,” says Kevin Edwards, President/CEO of Eberly and now Principal at Pape-Dawson. “This rebrand promotes a seamless experience for our clients and provides our employees with ample opportunities to build their careers with us while maintaining our commitment to thoughtful, local engineering.”
