CLS Management Services
Founded in 1985, CLS Management Services is a leading national provider of infrastructure land management services to utilities, traditional and renewable energy companies, and public infrastructure customers. CLS’s primary offerings include right-of-way services, survey and geospatial mapping, engineering and environmental assessments, and cultural resource management. CLS employs more than 1,000 professionals across 47 offices in 41 states and goes to market through the trade names Contract Land Staff, Keystone, Tierra, Paragon, and EPIC.
Grid-hardening initiatives, maintenance and repairs to aging infrastructure, growing electricity demand, and recent federal funding initiatives are driving increased spending on land management services by utilities and public infrastructure departments, two of CLS’s core customer segments. As a scaled player in its fragmented industry, CLS is well positioned to continue its growth trajectory.
