Longtime St. Pete engineering firm, president reinvigorated after acquisition

Griner Engineering Firm has been, well, grinding along since it began as an electrical engineering firm in St. Pete in 1968. 

What started as Best & Associates by Barney P. Best has changed hands and titles several times over the decades. It has also expanded its offerings to include mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection engineering design. Now its ready for its next iteration via an acquisition by Michigan-based OHM Advisors. (Financial terms of the deal weren't disclosed.)
