About

Strik, Baldinelli, Moniz Ltd. (SBM) originated as Strik, Baldinelli & Associates Ltd. (SBA) which was formed in 2004 by Michael Baldinelli, M.E.Sc., P. Eng. and Aaron Strik, P.Eng. and primarily focused on the design of small buildings, precast concrete culverts, and wood roof trusses.

In March 2012, KAM Engineering Ltd. (KAM), the Civil Engineering sister company of SBA led by Kevin Moniz, P.Eng., purchased Stevenson Engineering Limited, a firm led by Robert Stevenson, P.Eng. that had been providing Civil Engineering services throughout Southern Ontario since 1993. KAM continued to provide those same services, working with, and expanding on, the established knowledge base of Stevenson Engineering Limited while working closely with SBA. In 2014, the firms of SBA and KAM merged to form SBM.

In February 2017, SBM purchased EMCAD Consulting Engineers, a firm led by David Myles, P.Eng. that had been providing Mechanical and Electrical Engineering services since 1989, becoming a full-service engineering provider.

On September 1st, 2018, Mike Baldinelli was very suddenly and tragically lost. Though his shoes will never be filled, we persevere to honour his legacy and uphold the vision of the company he had such a big part in forming.

In 2019, SBM further expanded its service offerings to include Ontario Land Surveying (OLS), through the creation of SBM’s sister company SBM Geomatics Ltd. (SBMG), led by Gavin Seaman, OLS. In that same year, SBM increased its Civil Engineering capabilities to include Transportation Engineering.

Most recently in 2020, SBM extended its service offerings with the acquisition of Kirkness Consulting Inc. (KCI) Urban and Rural Planning, welcoming Laverne Kirkness, RPP, MCIP as our Principal Planner at SBM. KCI was a small, personalized, land use planning firm that has been operating within the London and Middlesex region since 1983. This merger and acquisition was complimentary to the full-service engineering and Ontario Land Surveying services already offered by SBM and subsidiaries.

Since their founding with two partners, the firm has grown to provide a full range of planning, surveying, and full-service engineering services, including competencies in municipal infrastructure; residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings and renovations; restoration and rehabilitation projects; and much more.

SBM employs over 100 dedicated planning, surveying, and engineering professionals, professionals in training, technologists, technicians, designers, and administrative personnel across the two offices in Kitchener and London. SBM holds Certificates of Authorization from the Professional Engineers of Ontario and Association of Ontario Land Surveyors (SBMG), a Permit to Practice from the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta, and are licenced with the Engineers and Geoscientists British Columbia. SBM are also members of the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers, Canadian Precast Prestressed Concrete Institute, Ontario Onsite Wastewater Association, London Chamber of Commerce, London & District Construction Association, London Home Builder’s Association, Grand Valley Construction Association, and Waterloo Region Homebuilder’s Association.

A responsive firm dedicated to prompt customer service, SBM prides itself in the positive working relationships we forge with our clients, taking the time to fully understand their needs. Maintaining this level of professional service has become one of our firm’s greatest achievements, as we continue to serve much of our original client base to this day.
