HOLLYWOOD, Fla., Oct. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NV5 Global, Inc. (the “Company” or “NV5”) (Nasdaq: NVEE), a provider of technology, certification, and consulting solutions, announced today that it has been awarded $26 million in geospatial contracts by leading electric and gas utilities to support utility infrastructure improvements, asset management, and vegetation management.
