DGT Associates, New England’s premier surveying and engineering firm, today announced the acquisition of Mattern & Stefon Land Surveyors. This expansion allows DGT to continue serving Mattern’s clients in southeast Connecticut, while also offering new services to these clients and other organizations throughout the state.

DGT’s acquisition of Mattern represents the firm’s fourth office and first location outside of Massachusetts. Susan F. Mattern, PLS, the firm’s co-founder and chief surveyor, joins DGT with a highly qualified and experienced team of field surveyors and drafters who will continue to operate in the state of Connecticut and now also extend its reach into Rhode Island and Central Massachusetts.

“We are honored to welcome Susan and the Mattern team to DGT and are excited to extend our roots into Connecticut,” said DGT Co-founder & Principal Michael A. Clifford, PLS. “Mattern has a deeply respected reputation for precision and detail, and we’re proud to continue the firm’s legacy, now under the DGT brand.”

As immediate past President of the Connecticut Association of Land Surveyors (CALS), Mattern brings decades of survey expertise and leadership. In 2016, she received the CALS Surveyor of the Year award, and her team has often earned the Plan of the Year award for their well-drawn, highly detailed plans. The firm’s clients include municipalities, attorneys, engineers, architects, developers, private landowners, casinos, energy companies, and general contractors in the state.

“We selected DGT because of their technology-first, accuracy-obsessed approach to surveying and engineering, and because of their 125-year history in New England,” said Susan F. Mattern, PLS. “Our team is elated to join forces with DGT and provide our clients with a greater depth of services as part of the DGT family.”
