President of Gibbens Drake Scott, Inc., Bob  began his career in the design of mechanical systems in 1975.  Since then, he has designed mechanical systems for a wide range of commercial, industrial, institutional, educational and government projects. His sustainable projects have included chiller and boiler plants, HVAC systems, plumbing systems, exhaust systems, utility distribution systems and humidity control systems.   A majority of these projects have included the design of energy efficient HVAC systems that have resulted in numerous LEED accredidation points.  His focus on LEED includes bringing existing systems up to the present indoor air quality standards, and present refrigerant standards.  As Project Engineer and Mechanical Principal-in-charge, his practical experience with project design, management and control is invaluable to the project for consultant and owner. 

Tim joined the firm in 1994 and was named a Vice President  in 1995. Continuing education in the areas of participative management and continuous improvement processes have helped in his various roles as Project Manager and Electrical Department Head of Principal-in-Charge. He has designed electrical systems for a wide range of commercial, industrial, educational, health care, recreational and governmental projects. Typical systems include building electrical services, indoor and outdoor lighting, power distribution, emergency power systems, uninterruptible power supply systems, medium voltage distribution, grounding, fire alarm and nurse call systems, hazardous area wiring, and communications. Over the years, Tim has worked extensively with cutting-edge ‘green’ projects across the country and continues to offer valuable insight into the sustainable features of various electrical systems. His years of experience in team structure, planning, design, project scheduling, contract documents, cost estimates, cost reduction evaluation, and construction administration will are a valuable asset to any project.
