2M General Engineering, Inc. is a California-based company established in 2020 that specializes in subsurface utility engineering. Aimed at enhancing infrastructure and public works projects, 2M offers a spectrum of services including utility locating, potholing, and utility mapping. Founded by Sacramento natives Matt Morrow and Chris Post, the inception of 2M was a result of their desire to merge their skills in land surveying and technology to create a service that addresses the needs of engineers, contractors, and government agencies effectively.
Central to 2M's operations is their LVD methodology: Locate, Verify, Document. This process involves utilizing advanced technology like Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Electromagnetic (EM) locating to accurately identify underground utilities. Following this, non-destructive excavation, often referred to as potholing, is employed to verify the exact depths and materials of these utilities. The final step entails documenting findings with comprehensive reports, utility maps, and GIS data, providing clients with crucial insights to enhance project safety and efficiency.
2M prides itself on its core values of integrity, transparency, and ethical conduct, ensuring high standards in all services provided. They focus on fostering a collaborative environment that encourages continuous improvement and accountability. Their client base includes prime contractors, engineering and consulting firms, educational campuses, healthcare institutions, and governmental public works agencies, highlighting their broad expertise and trusted partnership in the industry.
Operating from West Sacramento, 2M serves Northern California and is a certified small business, emphasizing their commitment to fair pricing and reliable services. The company actively participates in the community and industry by supporting safety and education initiatives. With their innovative approach and refined methodologies, 2M General Engineering aims to help clients navigate the complexities of underground environments and ensure that construction projects are built on solid and safe foundations.
