Enduring Values | Lasting Solutions

The ARS Story

ARS was founded by our late founder, Ayub R. Sandhu, PE, RPLS.
Born and raised in Pakistan, Ayub worked in construction before coming to the United States to pursue a civil engineering degree at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. He took an entry-level position at a local engineering firm, working his way to becoming a full Partner. But, his real dream was to start his own firm and to help build the local community in Dallas.
In 1985, Ayub's dream was realized: ARS Engineers, Inc. was born. The company began with a focus on Civil Engineering and Land Surveying for private development clients, but quickly shifted its focus to municipal and government clients throughout Texas. In 2016, Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) was added to the company's line of services, and in 2021 Utility Coordination was added as well.
Ayub passed away in 2021, but ARS remains committed to his enduring values, delivering lasting solutions that serve our clients and enrich our communities for generations.
Ayub spent many years training his son Marc to take over the company, who now serves as the company's President. Marc works daily to propel his father's vision forward, cementing a lasting legacy.
