The firm was started as Lee & Associates,
a sole proprietorship, in 1970 by Richard G. Lee and incorporated
in 1981. 100% of the outstanding shares of the corporation
are employee owned. Raymond D. Cole, Principal and President,
has been employed by the firm since 1981 and has been
the majority shareholder since 1994.
As we extended our practice outside the
Monterey Bay area, some confused us with other companies
that had established prior rights to the name Lee &
Associates or something similar. So, in 1999 we changed
the corporate name to Axiom Engineers(sm), Inc. We continue
to do business as Lee & Associates in the Monterey Bay
area, both to honor our founder and to maintain the
valuable name recognition that comes from many years
of hard work and thousands of successful projects.
The previous owner, Richard G. Lee, has
remained with the firm in an advisory position and as
a member of the Board of Directors. With other Principals,
Mr. Cole oversees design activities. As President, he
oversees business operations of the firm. Mr. Lee provides
marketing and technical support to Mr. Cole, mentoring
to the staff, and client follow-up regarding Axiom Engineers'(sm)
performance.

We cut to the heart of the matter and get inside our
projects. We understand how the equipment we select
really works. We are not "catalog" engineers
specifying "black boxes". We have designed
complex, one-of-a-kind systems, processes, and machines
successfully for over 30 years.
We provide real, not paper, experience. Because our
employees have many years' experience with us, each
listed reference project is what we call "real
company" experience. The people who did a project
10 years ago are available today for your current project.

Our CADD capabilities include AutoDesk's AutoCAD and
Architectural Desktop, as well as Bentley's Microstation
SE. Our design and engineering teams are fully trained
and comfortable with all of the challenging aspects
of CADD-based document production and can support custom-developed
solutions and requirements for our clients' exclusive
needs. Ongoing training is mandatory on an annual basis
for our staff, thus creating a vast information resource
our clients can tap for state-of-the-art information
and status on anything related to CADD. Routine meetings,
in-office seminars, and training by vendors and in-house
experts transfer the latest knowledge of a particular
subject throughout the company.
We continually update our engineering and production
methodologies to meet or exceed the industry standards.
The entire staff operates on the company network with
the most current software. Our designers have mastered
the most advanced CADD features. We currently use more
than 50 different manufacturers' equipment selection
software packages.
Streamlined and standardized production and design
procedures, from system sizing to specification to drawing
production provide a high degree of quality, consistency,
and efficiency.
| Computer
Assisted Design is now considered to be a commodity
in the industry. We bring more to the table by mastering
the most advanced features of the standard packages.
We also rigorously apply drafting, engineering,
and project management standards to all of our project
documentation. |
