Warwick, RI BL Companies has relocated and expanded its local  office to accommodate continued growth. The Rhode Island expansion is part of the company’s long-term growth strategy, which involves expanding its presence throughout the Northeast while also continuing with its expansion in the Southeast.

BL Companies has operated in the Rhode Island market for well over a decade and opened its first physical office eight years ago. The new 3,700 s/f office space, located at 300 Jefferson Blvd., can accommodate more than 30 professionals. The move positions the company to further support its growing client base.

“This expansion marks an exciting new chapter for BL Companies in Rhode Island,” said Derek Kohl, V.P. of operations. “It reflects the momentum we’ve built across the public and private sectors. Warwick is a strategically located base of operations for us, with excellent proximity to key clients, transportation networks, and talent.”

BL Companies’ Warwick team includes professionals in architecture, engineering and environmental services, supporting projects for the R.I. Department of Transportation, R.I. Energy, the University of R.I., R.I. Public Transit Authority, the R.I. Army National Guard, the Community College of R.I., and numerous municipalities and private developers.

As its Warwick operation expands, BL Companies plans to grow its public infrastructure and utility work, and to establish a stronger presence in facility design and land development with retail/commercial/residential-related projects. This further builds on BL’s experience in other regions and deepens its presence throughout New England.
