Aventia, an industry-leading platform providing comprehensive environmental service solutions, today announced the acquisition of Habitat Management, Inc. (HMI), a natural resource management and ecological consulting firm specializing in environmental projects, land reclamation and permitting, and regulatory affairs. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Based in Colorado, HMI brings decades of field experience and project management expertise to deliver innovative natural resource solutions nationwide, with a focus on reclamation, restoration, and mitigation. Since its founding in 1995, the company has expanded its core services to include water resources and environmental consulting.
Aventia — formerly Environmental Systems Group — was established in July 2022 by Bernhard Capital Partners, a services and infrastructure-focused private equity management firm. Aventia provides a comprehensive suite of environmental and technology-driven solutions to meet the evolving needs of public- and private-sector clients. As Aventia’s fifth acquisition, HMI enhances the platform’s natural resource management capabilities while deepening its on-the-ground experience across the Rocky Mountain region.
“We are excited to welcome an accomplished firm like HMI to the Aventia team,” said Dirk Applegate, Chief Executive Officer of Aventia. “Their extensive expertise across environmental disciplines strengthens our ability to deliver comprehensive, high-impact solutions and field services, broadening our capabilities and diversifying our offerings to drive growth across a wide range of sectors.”
“Our commitment has always been to foster healthy environments that benefit the communities we work in, and it’s a strong fit to join a team that shares and demonstrates that mission,” said Tony Matthews and Matt Clark, co-owners of HMI. “We are dedicated to ongoing excellence and look forward to building on our capabilities by tapping into Aventia’s broad reach and established resources to better serve clients across sectors and geographies.”
“The addition of Habitat Management further elevates Aventia’s position in the growing environmental services space by adding specialized, field-proven capabilities that meet the evolving needs of clients nationwide,” said Chris Dillon, Partner at Bernhard Capital. “This partnership enhances our ability to scale, unlock new market opportunities, and deliver long-term, sustainable value.”
