Utility Vegetation Management
ACRT’s core UVM consulting services help utilities of every type and size manage vegetation proactively, improve reliability, maintain compliance, and deliver consistent program performance across their systems.
ACRT is the nation’s only fully independent, 100% employee-owned vegetation management company. Our services reflect more than four decades of experience delivering expert consulting, field program support, and specialized technical capabilities to utilities and infrastructure clients across the country.
Our service model is built around a single principle: when your consulting partner has no ties to tree care companies or construction contractors, every recommendation reflects your program’s actual needs. From pre-inspection and contract utility forestry to ground truthing, capital construction support, risk prevention, emergency response, and environmental analysis, ACRT provides the full range of capabilities a modern utility vegetation management program requires — all delivered by highly trained, long-tenured professionals with managers in the field alongside them.
