"A pleasure to work with. Thoughtful and always willing to consider clever alternative solutions."

Simeon Bruner Founding Principal

JACA Architects

"As the founder and CEO of JACA Architects I would consider Souza True Engineers to be a first choice in structural engineering solutions. Over the past 30 years of working with many of ST&P members they have always been a partner in both new and renovation projects. They have always been considerate of project schedules, budgets and the need to respond to field questions in a timely manner."

Mount Auburn Hospital

"Souza, True and Partners has had a long standing relationship with Mount Auburn Hospital providing structural engineering support to the healthcare projects on campus for over 20 years. Their common sense approach to working with the design team whether it is an MRI suite or aging garage renovation allows the team to clearly understand the options and to move forward."

Nick Dileso COO

NADAAA, Inc.

"NADAAA has had the privilege of working with Souza, True and Partners for several years across many projects and typologies. They are an expert team of valuable advisors and collaborative partners. Foundational to our process is an attention to detail and an appetite to challenge the status quo: both require patient and flexible structural engineering. They have consistently provided creative and cost-effective solutions, which have proven essential to project success. For example, their early analysis of the existing concrete structure of the R&D Center for the Beaver Country Day persuaded our client to approve an additional floor of classroom space, solving several program constraints. Furthermore, the project had a significant renovation component. Souza True was called upon to improvise solutions for unforeseen conditions, engendering trust from client and contractor alike. We look forward to continuing our work with Souza True, and highly recommend them as a consulting partner."

"Souza, True and Partners is one of the finest structural engineering firms that I have had the pleasure to work with in my 25 years of construction.

"Souza, True and Partners performed all of the structural Design work on the Worcester Medical Center / Saint Vincent Hospital Project which was an 800,000 sq. ft. new construction developed in Downtown Worcester on a 25-acre brown field. The facility opened in April 2000. The team performed in a very professional manner, met schedules as needed and have been readily available for any questions or inquiries since the completion of the job… I would highly recommend this firm for any project."
