That recognition has led to Michael and other staff members being invited as guest lecturers and speakers at the Columbia Graduate School of Engineering, NYS Bar Association, and numerous corporate seminars.įast forward 30 years, and many of the familiar faces that our clients have come to depend on at RPO are still at it. The RPO team of engineers, lawyers and highly experienced industry experts applied their collective knowledge and successfully took on numerous challenging projects - along the way gaining a reputation for being a shop that can handle all matters of all levels of complexity. At this point the business expanded into other agencies, began broadening its repertoire of services, and recruited the brightest and best minds in the business. Three years after Richard founded RPO, Michael joined him upon graduating college with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree with dual majors in Finance and Management. Meanwhile, Richard's son, Michael Pressel, had been cutting his teeth in the construction business. Together they focused on creating new systems to streamline their performance of DOT services to contractors City-wide. Shortly thereafter, Ginette Celestin, a former colleague of Richard's at the Department of Transportation, joined him bringing her vast knowledge of the DOT procedures into the fold. Business leaders and friends supported him, and contractor clients flocked to RPO to have his watchful eyes on their projects. Richard's attention to detail, unconventional problem solving skills, and reputation as an honest guy who is a straight shooter served him well starting out. In 1987, after leaving his position as the Director of the Mayor's Traffic and Construction Coordinating Council at the New York City Department of Transportation, Richard J. is extremely proud to be marking its 30th anniversary.
