About

Who We Are

Project Professionals Corporation (formerly Wade & Associates) has been continually in business since 2002. PPC is a greater San Diego area business, so our entire staff lives and works locally. We are currently growing past 25 employees that all work on local programs and projects approaching one-billion dollars in value.

Byron Wade, President/CEO, led the management and inspection of a local agency’s capital improvement program for 16 years prior to opening his own private consulting firm in 2002. Mr. Wade is also an attorney with over 30 years of experience in the specialized fields of government and contract/construction law.

Our staff consists mostly of expert level managers, engineers, architects and inspectors.  We develop local university talent through our training and team approach. Our cumulative knowledge and experience are thoughtfully built-in to our services that we provide to local municipal agencies, school districts and Indian tribes in a most efficient and effective way.
