Precis Engineering Inc., an MEP engineering firm headquartered in Ambler, Pennsylvania, with offices in Cary, North Carolina, and San Diego, has announced two additions to its leadership team.

Volence retains his concurrent title of senior director, Mechanical Engineering; Bierwerth remains senior director, Electrical Engineering. In addition, Todd Rohn, PE, and Vince McGilloway, PE, have been promoted to Mechanical Engineering managers.

"John Volence and Scott Bierwerth have proven themselves as engineers committed to the Precis philosophy of principal-led project leadership," said Precis Founding Principal and President Robert Dick, PE. "Their promotions mark our confidence in their executive leadership abilities and their ongoing dedication to our clients' operational and business successes while maintaining our distinct Precis corporate culture."

Volence joined Precis in 2007 and has risen to lead the company's 35-person mechanical engineering department. An engineer with 14+ years of experience in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and higher education projects, he has completed complex HVAC and MEP designs and assessments across the U.S. As a Certified Energy Manager (CEM), Volence offers expertise in energy modeling, analysis, and system operation. He holds a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University and membership in the International Society of Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE) and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). He resides with his family in Horsham, Pennsylvania.

"I am excited to join a leadership team that's committed to maintaining the culture that has made Precis special throughout our sustained growth," Volence said. "I look forward to enhanced opportunities to direct and develop our mechanical staff with a focus on engineering fundamentals and technical excellence."

Scott Bierwerth, PE | Principal and Senior Director, Electrical Engineering

Bierwerth joined Precis in 2014 and has risen to lead the company's 20-person electrical engineering department. He has spent 12+ years designing complex electrical power distribution systems for pharmaceutical, healthcare, data centers, higher education, and corporate projects. His expertise includes design for demand-driven lighting systems and specialized laboratory equipment connections, along with electrical analyses such as arc flash and short-circuit studies. He holds a B.S. in Architectural and Electrical Engineering from the University of Kansas and membership in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and its Industry Applications Society. He resides with his family in Malvern, Pennsylvania.

"I'm enthusiastic about joining Precis leadership and continuing to grow and improve our electrical team's capabilities," Bierwerth said. "I will work to support our team, clients, and mission of continuous improvement."

In additional promotions, Precis elevated Todd Rohn, PE, and Vince McGilloway, PE, to Mechanical Engineering managers. Rohn joined Precis in 2015 as a senior mechanical engineer. He has 18+ years of professional experience and expertise in the design and application of complex HVAC systems for cGMP facilities and clean rooms. He is a member of ISPE, the American Society for Mechanical Engineers (ASME), and the Pennsylvania Society of Professional Engineers (PSPE) for which he previously served as Philadelphia Chapter board secretary.
