This Senate Resolution celebrates the 100th anniversary of Volkert, Inc., acknowledging its century of dedicated service to both the State of Alabama and the United States. Founded in 1925, the company quickly established a presence in Mobile, Alabama, playing a crucial role in early infrastructure projects like the Mobile Bay Causeway and the Mississippi River and Tributaries Project. Throughout its history, Volkert, Inc. has made significant contributions, including expanding the Alabama State Docks during World War II and later becoming 100 percent employee-owned . The firm was instrumental in the development of the National Interstate Highway System and designed major projects such as the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway, the I-10 Twin Bridges, and Alabama's Cochrane Africatown Bridge. The resolution also recognizes Volkert, Inc.'s work in preserving the USS Alabama and USS Drum, restoring Alabama's gulf coast after Hurricane Katrina, and undertaking other large-scale transportation projects. Headquartered in Mobile, Alabama, with over 1,500 employee-owners across 60 offices, the company is consistently ranked among the top engineering firms in the U.S., and the Senate officially commends its leadership for these engineering, infrastructure, and economic development contributions.
