Global Infrastructure Solutions Inc. (GISI) and Rocco Trotta, founder of The LiRo Group (LiRo) have closed their previously announced merger in a move they say will advance the companies’ shared strategy for growth in the construction-management and engineering industry. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The merger strengthens both organizations, said John Dionisio, GISI vice chairman and co-founder.
“Rocco has led LiRo to a prominent market position in construction management, engineering and related services for institutional and public-works projects,” Mr. Dionisio said. “LiRo represents our initial building block in GISI’s new Global Engineering and Consulting Platform and complements what we have achieved in Construction Services with STO Building Group (STOBG), which merged with us in January 2017.”
LiRo has worked on numerous prominent projects, including the post-9/11 rebuilding of Lower Manhattan, the Governor Mario Cuomo Bridge, East Side Access, the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at the University of Buffalo, New York City coastal resiliency, transit, terminal and other infrastructure improvements at John F. Kennedy International Airport and High Line Park.
