Its current CEO is Patrick Kennedy, described on the site as "our third CEO". On its span, the site says: "After 40 years, we're just getting started." The name is explained on the site: "V3 stands for 'Visio, Vertere, Virtute': 'The Vision to Transform with Excellence.'" V3 is an employee-owned firm, and the site describes an "employee ownership and shared-success model". The five published values are: - Unwavering Integrity - Commitment to Excellence - Focus on Clients - Dedication to Employees - Service to Community On how it works with clients, the site says it delivers "service level and solutions that defy expectations" and that "difficult challenges and complex projects are where we excel". The firm describes itself as award-winning but names no specific awards. The site does not publish employee headcount, revenue, the year of any ownership transition, professional certifications or registrations, or DBE, MBE and similar business classifications.

With our designers, engineers, and scientists devoted to your goals, there's no challenge we can't conquer." Its tagline is "The Vision to Transform with Excellence". The services published are: - Site Civil - Structural - Transportation Planning and Design - Railroad - Construction Engineering - Heavy Construction - Land Surveying - Landscape Architecture - Planning - Floodplain and Stormwater - Water Supply - Wastewater - Environmental - Wetlands and Ecology - Ecological Restoration That range covers three broad areas that most firms keep separate: land development and civil engineering, transportation and rail infrastructure, and environmental and ecological work including wetlands and restoration.
