For Buyers
At Pre-69 Engineering Corporation, we help engineering firms navigate one of the toughest business challenges in North Carolina: how to practice while maintaining your company’s existing ownership structure.
North Carolina’s corporate practice laws can make it difficult — or even impossible — for publicly traded companies, private equity–backed firms, and multi-disciplinary engineering organizations to operate here. That’s where we come in.
​
We have corporate charters with a special exemption that applies only to corporations formed before June 5, 1969. That “grandfathered” status allows us to provide a legal pathway for firms to meet North Carolina licensing requirements and keep their business model intact.
Our mission is simple:
We make it easier for out-of-state engineering firms, contractors, and other organizations to provide engineering services in North Carolina — legally, efficiently, and with complete confidence.
