TREKK’s entrepreneurial culture means that our employees are empowered to make decisions that are best for our clients and are encouraged to develop innovative and creative solutions. We have a casual work environment and flexible schedules, including the ability to work remotely. When you spend the biggest part of your day at work, it’s only natural that your co-workers become family. The TREKK family cares about each other in and out of the office. So you will often find games of ping pong, potluck lunches, happy hours and friendly competitions in our offices.

BBB Rating & Accreditation

After six years in the engineering industry, Kimberly recognized a need for more quality diverse businesses in Kansas City’s engineering community. With a simple plan to deliver quality work, on schedule and under budget, she and Trent founded TREKK in 2002. At TREKK, we improve lives by providing direction to enable community and personal growth.

Balance Hill

Growing up, her business owner father instilled in her his unwillingness to accept failure and entrepreneurial spirit. Sadly, he passed away when she was just 12, leaving behind Kimberly, her mother and her two sisters. Driven by her mother’s strength in the face of adversity, Kimberly stepped up to help care for her siblings, building the traits of leadership, self-confidence and resilience that characterize her today. TREKK’s leadership team embodies our core values, drives our entrepreneurial culture, and they’re pretty fun, too. In fact, many of our team members have been with us since the beginning and now serve as leaders and mentors to others.

We encourage staff to speak at conferences and panels and to be involved in thought leadership throughout our industry. Characterized by her mother’s resolve and her father’s fearlessness, it’s no surprise Kimberly became an entrepreneur. She has built TREKK’s culture around her personal purpose of IMPROVING LIVES through service to the community.

Services

A black belt by the third grade, he learned early on the discipline of time management, training and leadership that comes with sports – and life. She can turn even the most basic task into a learning opportunity. This mentorship extends to the community, where she volunteers her time to spread the love of engineering to our younger generation, particularly young women.

TREKK’s entrepreneurial spirit starts with our founders, Kimberly and Trent Robinett, who decided to follow their dreams to serve others. BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

As a woman-owned business, we encourage diversity in our people, services and communities.

We have been designing solutions for clean water and safe roads since 2002. When he’s not improving sewer infrastructure, Brock is giving back to the community through outreach to aspiring engineers. And if that’s not enough, Brock is also an entrepreneur, operating a tubing, kayaking and camping business all summer long.

TREKK’s early projects focused primarily on transportation and site development work across Kansas City. That niche led us to open TREKK’s first regional office in Omaha, Nebraska to assist with that city’s combined sewer overflow program. As TREKK has grown and evolved, so has Trent’s role within the company. Today, he’s responsible for project delivery and TREKK’s business development functions. He works directly with staff to help them deliver solutions to TREKK clients. Ever the optimist, Trent enjoys coaching and mentoring staff to find ways to make a difference in their communities.

With the future of some infrastructure projects up in the air right now, firms like TREKK are worried about the impact. “We work for a lot of municipalities and we’re beginning to see the budget challenges that lie ahead for many of them. There’s just a lot of uncertainty going forward,” said Robinett. One thing Brock learned from his football career at South Dakota State University is that two steps into a route, the play can change. So when you combine an education in civil engineering with an all-conference wide receiver, you get a very non-traditional engineer.

This gives him the opportunity to share with staff the company purpose and vision of IMPROVING LIVES taught to him by Kimberly. Our entrepreneurial culture empowers us to engineer holistic, commonsense solutions that support the growth and restoration of the communities we serve. Innovation, creativity and free thinking are encouraged to deliver quality solutions that match our clients’ needs. We derive success and fulfillment from the impact our work has in the communities we call home and the people we serve. We call this IMPROVING LIVES, and we’ve been proud to do so since 2002. TREKK was built around passionate, trustworthy difference makers.

She enjoys sharing new travel experiences with them, reading, and solving complex puzzles, like conquering every escape room she’s entered. All three girls share her competitive spirit and emotional intelligence. She is active at her church and in numerous civic and industry organizations and gives back through mentoring. Kimberly is also a Kansas City Business Journal 2016 Women Who Mean Business honoree. Our collaborative and strategic approach ensures long term success.

Brock always keeps his eye on the ball when it comes to client satisfaction and a quality end product. TREKK has grown and evolved, but as the firm’s CEO/Managing Partner, Kimberly has remained the constant beacon that sets the company’s course. She oversees the company’s overall operations and strategic direction. Her compassion, wisdom and kindness resonate throughout TREKK and is what makes us different. Kimberly got her first job at age 15 and put herself through college at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, where she graduated with a degree in Electrical Engineering.
