EAI is a multi-disciplinary environmental consulting firm offering professional services focusing on species and ecosystem management, monitoring, and research.

About us

EAI was founded in 1994 by Bob Ernest and Erik Martin. Headquartered in Jensen Beach, Florida, EAI developed solid relationships with local governments, businesses, and the community. Stan DeForest took over as CEO in 2015 and helped launch tremendous growth which allowed EAI to service a much wider territory.
