Midwest Engineering and Testing, Inc. (MET) is an engineering firm that services primarily Central Illinois and performs geotechnical engineering, construction materials testing and environmental engineering. MET was incorporated in Illinois in September of 2009 when the former branch office of Midwest Engineering Services, Inc (MES), a Wisconsin Corporation, was acquired by Daniel Tappendorf, the former branch manager and current company President. In 2021, MET opened an office in Springfield, Illinois and acquired Ramsey Geotechnical Engineering in Bloomington, Illinois. MET currently has a total staff of 65 personnel, which includes Ms. Kelsey Mueller, Division Manager Bloomington Office , Mr. James Gerloff, Division Manager Springfield Office, and Mr. Nicholas Wendling, Division Manager Champaign Office.
MET and its predecessor companies have successfully provided geotechnical engineering, material testing and environmental consultation services on numerous projects within Central Illinois over the past 35 years. In terms of local experience, MET is unmatched in providing geotechnical, materials testing and construction inspection services in the Central Illinois area. Our principal engineer, Mr. Daniel Tappendorf has been in practice in Central Illinois for 34 years. It is our opinion that this longevity speaks to the quality of service and commitment we have toward our customers.
Our engineering technicians have been trained and certified through the IDOT QC/QA program as well as American Concrete Institute (ACI) certification. Lab tests are performed in each of our office’s local laboratory. The laboratories and test equipment are inspected and approved annually by IDOT. MET also owns and operates five (5) of its own drill rigs and has a fleet of support vehicles.
