In 1957, company founder Jack S. Braun was newly graduated from the University of Minnesota with a B.S. in Civil Engineering when he started providing soil testing services from his Minneapolis home. As the company grew and evolved to adapt to industry changes, new services were added, including environmental consulting and geotechnical engineering. Extending beyond Minnesota borders, BraunIntertec brought its expertise to other neighboring states, including North Dakota, Iowa, and Wisconsin.
