Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Greg Ricks became CEO on July 30, 2026, preserving utility leadership continuity.

What critics are saying

  • Integration into Guardian can distract leadership and disrupt client delivery during 2026.

  • A severe utility spending slowdown or loss of Guardian support would crush growth and valuation.

What makes E2 Consulting Engineers unique
