DGR Engineering Opens Office Space in Luverne

August 21, 2026

 

DGR Engineering is pleased to announce the opening of its new office space in Luverne, Minnesota, expanding the firm’s presence in southwest Minnesota and strengthening its ability to serve clients throughout the region. This addition builds on the firm’s longstanding relationships with clients throughout the tri-state area and reflects its commitment to providing trusted engineering services close to the communities it serves.

“We appreciate the growing number of clients we are working with  in the southwest Minnesota area.” stated Curt Dieren, President of DGR Engineering. “Our new Luverne office presence will help us perform this work more efficiently  and in support of the continued infrastructure improvements in the area.”

Two familiar faces will be the primary individuals working from the new location:

Matt Knips, PE is the office manager for the new office. Matt is a Luverne native and has been employed with DGR Engineering’s Rock Rapids office since his graduation from South Dakota State University in 2013. Over the years, he has been involved in a variety of civil projects throughout Luverne, Adrian, Pipestone, Hendricks, Ellsworth, Hardwick, Brewster and Windom; with one of the more recent projects being the TH 75 Utility Improvements project in Luverne, in conjunction with MnDOT.

Brian Meyer, PE is the head of Aviation Services at DGR and has served as the Luverne airport engineer for more than 20 years, including the last 14 years at DGR Engineering. Brian brings experience from hundreds of airport projects at more than 100 airports throughout the region.

In addition to Matt and Brian, the Luverne office will be supported by a broader team of DGR professionals who bring specialized expertise from across the company. As DGR Engineering continues to grow its presence in southwest Minnesota, clients will have access to the wide range of engineering, planning and technical support services offered by DGR Engineering.

This collaborative approach allows DGR Engineering to provide local service backed by the depth, experience, and capabilities of a full-service consulting firm, ensuring communities in Luverne and the surrounding region receive responsive solutions tailored to their needs.
