Doug&#8217;s leadership, expertise, and commitment have left a lasting mark on our company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout his tenure, Doug has been a mentor and a driving force behind our success. His expertise with construction survey projects and data analysis has been instrumental in shaping Westlake\u2019s surveyor training and workflow process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doug&#8217;s career includes notable projects such as Portland&#8217;s Martin Luther King Viaduct bridge replacement, where he logged nearly 5,000 hours of QA\/QC work over five years, demonstrating his dedication to a job well done. Other significant projects include the Sauvie Island Bridge replacement, the Oregon Zoo Bond Improvements, Lake Oswego Interceptor Sewer Project (LOIS), Providence Park Stadium Expansion, the Hawthorne Bridge, Portland Community College campuses, Nike&#8217;s Beaverton campus, Bonneville Dam, and Portland&#8217;s original MAX light rail line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Doug moves on to a well-deserved retirement, we express our deepest gratitude for his contributions. His influence will be missed, but we are grateful for the 32 remarkable years we&#8217;ve had the privilege to work alongside him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Best wishes, Doug, for a fulfilling retirement!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:59.37584%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/doug-Copy.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/doug-Copy.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/doug-Copy.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=936 936w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"966\" data-id=\"3364\" data-link=\"https:\/\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/?attachment_id=3364\" data-url=\"http:\/\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/doug-Copy.jpg\" data-width=\"936\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/doug-Copy.jpg\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open image 1 of 3 in full-screen\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:40.62416%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600 600w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900 900w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200 1200w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500 1500w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1800 1800w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=2000 2000w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1920\" data-id=\"3367\" data-link=\"https:\/\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/?attachment_id=3367\" data-url=\"http:\/\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg\" data-width=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2856-1024x768.jpg\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open image 2 of 3 in full-screen\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1800&#038;ssl=1 1800w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=2000&#038;ssl=1 2000w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1920\" data-id=\"3377\" data-link=\"https:\/\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/?attachment_id=3377\" data-url=\"https:\/\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg\" data-width=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/westlakeconsultants.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_2770-1024x768.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open image 3 of 3 in full-screen\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we bid farewell to Doug Liles, Associate, and Senior Land Surveyor, we reflect on a remarkable 32-year journey at Westlake Consultants.
