LHP Engineering Solutions Plans Pontiac, Michigan, EV Testing Operations

05/13/2024
LHP Engineering Solutions, a provider of engineering services, training, and technology solutions to the transportation industry, plans to establish operations in Pontiac, Michigan. The $3.6 million project is expected to create 35 jobs.

The investment will include the renovation of an existing facility that will include dedicated electric vehicle test labs.

“LHP Engineering Solutions is delighted to collaborate with the Michigan Economic Development Corporation to develop our Michigan location as a premier center for the future of mobility,” said Steve Neemeh, CTO, LHP Engineering. “LHP's decades of leadership in the vehicle controls space, coupled with our international partnerships with certification bodies, will enable our Michigan team to be at the forefront of the ever-evolving electrified power, hybrid, and autonomous revolution."

The project is being supported by a $500,000 Michigan Business Development Program performance-based grant. The city of Pontiac has also offered permitting and assistance with finding candidates for the newly created positions.

“This is a perfect example of how the state, in collaboration with local cities and counties, is becoming a global leader in mobility and vehicle electrification,” noted Oakland County Executive Dave Coulter. “When LHP Engineering Solutions had a choice of where to locate its new electric vehicle testing and training center and the 35 high-wage engineering jobs that come with it, the company chose Pontiac over another site in Indiana. We welcome the investment and the confidence that LHP has in Michigan and Oakland County.”
