Baltimore, Md. – RMF Engineering today announced the expansion of its infrastructure services at the firm’s office in York, Pa. The office, which opened last year as RMF’s tenth location in the U.S., is expanding to give clients a more localized approach to infrastructure services and field services such as commissioning, condition assessments, energy audits, and arc flash studies. The expansion also includes a boost to RMF’s local inspections and traditional building services. As a measure of support, the firm is growing the local office by five employees and plans to add two additional employees within the next six months.
“We’re excited to bring a new level of intelligent, innovative, sustainable and reliable engineering solutions to our partners in the York region,” commented Brian Wodka, PE, CEM, LEED AP, who is team leader for the infrastructure group in York. “There’s a great sense of community in central Pennsylvania, and we are looking forward to furthering our presence here to help support the local economy.”
Wodka, who was previously based out of RMF’s headquarters in Baltimore, Md., is a mechanical engineer and a published author. He joined RMF 13 years ago and has extensive experience in the design and engineering of heating plants and distribution systems for large campuses, including higher education, laboratory / research facilities, private corporations and government installations.
Wodka also leads the power plant assessment and reliability team at RMF. He has performed power plant assessments and boiler inspections for the last 12 years. Additionally, Wodka is the vice chair on ASME’s committee for developing standards for reliability, availability, and maintainability of power plants (RAM).
RMF is working closely with York County School of Technology, York Technical Institute, and York College to recruit new technical personnel who will support the service expansion in York, as well as the region served by that office (central Pennsylvania, Delaware and the Eastern Shore).
