Established in 1994 as a certified Woman Owned Small Business, TGE Resources provides clients in a variety of industries with superior environmental management and consulting services. TGE continues to deliver on its core mission to provide quality environmental consulting and management services to a variety of public and private institutions, as well as the federal marketplace. Successful project completion and an outstanding record of client satisfaction has allowed TGE to achieve its reputation as a “leader” within the environmental industry, to retain highly qualified/knowledgeable staff, and to sustain business growth.
As a professional service business, TGE has performed thousands of projects and has been in uninterrupted service without experiencing a negative history of litigation or losses, and without loss of clients, even during cyclic industry downturns. We firmly believe that TGE’s stability and business strength are attributable, in great part, to our attention to personal service, to the technical diversity of our staff and our ability to respond quickly and efficiently to client needs and market stressors. Equally, our constant investment into our quality employees, and our commitment to the pursuit of reliable, honest and trustworthy scientific practices and standards set us apart from our peers.
With key management bringing over 130 years of professional experience, TGE offers practical, accessible, honest professionals who prepare reports that are easy to understand, timely, and responsive. TGE has become a major contributor to its industry from not only its offices in Texas and Louisiana, but nationally with its diligent practice of putting clients and honest work ethic ahead of all other goals.
