Spheros Acquires Panorama Environmental, Expanding Western Expertise

DENVER, Sept. 15, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Spheros Environmental, a nationwide environmental consulting firm, has completed the acquisition of Panorama Environmental, Inc., a San Francisco-based company specializing in environmental planning, CEQA and NEPA compliance, and regulatory permitting. This strategic move deepens Spheros' expertise in the Western United States and bolsters its capabilities in the power, renewable energy, data centers, water, natural resource management, and state and local government sectors.

Panorama Environmental, founded in 2008, has accumulated nearly 15 years of experience serving both public- and private-sector clients across California and the western United States. Their expertise spans energy, water, infrastructure, natural resources, wildfire and fuels management, transportation, mining, and public infrastructure. The acquisition adds substantial CEQA and NEPA environmental review, regulatory strategy, and permitting experience to Spheros, further strengthening its regional presence and service offerings.

Andra Kidd, CEO of Spheros Environmental, commented, "Panorama has built an excellent reputation for combining strong environmental planning and regulatory expertise with a practical understanding of what clients need to move complex projects forward. Their experience in CEQA, NEPA, power, renewable energy, water, data centers, infrastructure, and natural resources complements work already underway across Spheros. We also share a similar approach to technical quality, client service, collaboration, and thoughtful problem-solving."

The multidisciplinary team at Panorama Environmental includes environmental planners, project managers, GIS specialists, biologists, air quality and noise specialists, paleontologists, foresters, and visual resource specialists. Their work supports projects from early feasibility and project definition through environmental review, permitting, public engagement, mitigation, construction compliance, and post-construction monitoring. This expertise complements Spheros' existing capabilities in air quality, water resources, climate and sustainability, ecology and natural resources, impact assessment and permitting, and digital solutions and systems.

Tania Treis, President of Panorama Environmental, stated, "We chose Spheros because we saw strong alignment in both the work our firms undertake and our performance. We have always focused on strategic alignments: anticipating challenges, bringing together the right expertise, and helping our clients make sound decisions as projects move from planning through implementation. Joining Spheros allows us to continue that approach while giving our clients and employees access to a broader range of technical expertise and resources."

Susanne Heim, VP and Principal at Panorama Environmental, added, "This is an opportunity to build on what has made Panorama successful while creating new connections for our people and our clients. We are joining an organization that values technical expertise, collaboration, and strong client relationships, and we look forward to what our teams can accomplish together."

The acquisition reflects Spheros' continued growth as a nationwide environmental consulting firm built around scientific expertise, strong client relationships, and collaboration across disciplines. Spheros continues to expand the expertise available to clients while maintaining the relationships and regional knowledge that make its teams successful.
