Vetter Becomes President of ASPE, Piernicky Becomes President of ACEC
Jim Vetter
Mike Piernicky
LITTLE ROCK, AR — Two Olsson employees are currently filling leadership roles with organizations that strengthen the engineering profession and industry.
Jim Vetter, Project Engineer on Olsson’s Water/Wastewater team, is serving as President of the Arkansas Society of Professional Engineers (ASPE), an affiliate of the National Society of Professional Engineers. The parent organization and its affiliates promote engineering licensure, strong ethical standards and continuing education.
Meanwhile, Mike Piernicky is President of the American Council of Engineering Companies of Nebraska (ACEC Nebraska), which works to improve the business environment for the consulting engineering industry through advocacy and education. Piernicky is a veteran transportation leader who serves as a Client Relationship Manager for Olsson.
“Being involved in ACEC is unique to me, in that the firms or people we are competitive with on a daily basis, we work together with in ACEC,” he said. “There’s a common interest that brings us together, and often times we realize where we can help and support each other."
Piernicky’s goals for ACEC Nebraska — supported by more than 50 member companies in the state — include an update of the 10-year-old strategic plan and the organization’s bylaws. ACEC Nebraska recently sent out a survey to members to help guide the process.
Vetter’s presidency with ASPE culminates a progression from his earliest involvement with the local chapter in Fayetteville, Arkansas, 12 years ago. That led him to ASPE’s state board, which plans the annual conference and stays informed of any legislative issues that might affect licensure or the industry.
Vetter’s goals for the year include increasing participation in the organization and continuing to promote licensure in engineering.
