Stanley Consultants, Inc. is an international civil engineering, construction, and environmental engineering services company with its headquarters in Muscatine, Iowa, U.S.A.

Stanley Consultants began as a small engineering firm in Muscatine, Iowa founded by Charles Young in 1913. In 1932, C. Maxwell "Max" Stanley joined the firm, and its business and geographical reach grew. The 1930's brought an expansion of public works projects in the United States under the federal Public Works Administration. And Stanley's firm obtained many government contracts dealing with rural electrification, state roads and highways, and water supply and sanitation systems.

In 1957, Stanley Consultants began its international operations, opening an office in Monrovia, Liberia. In the 1960's, Stanley Consultants expanded its services to meet client needs that exceeded pure engineering. The company developed a multi-disciplinary consulting services practice that now includes professional architects, economists, construction managers, and planners - among others. The company continues to expand its business, and recently entered into the environmental engineering and design-build fields.
