Ray Mankbadi Honored with Lifetime Achievement Award

May 18, 2026

Congratulations to Ray Mankbadi on receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Concrete Institute New Jersey Chapter and New Jersey Municipal Contractors Association, recognizing an exceptional 45-year career dedicated to advancing the transportation industry.

Over the past 20 years, Ray’s leadership has grown H&H’s Geotechnical Engineering group from a single engineer to a dedicated team of more than 15 professionals. Through his technical expertise and guidance, the group has built a strong reputation throughout New Jersey and established a significant presence across New York City and New York State.

Today, Ray continues to mentor H&H’s geotechnical professionals while supporting the growth of the firm’s geotechnical practice in new geographic markets across the company. His leadership, industry knowledge, and commitment to technical excellence have made a lasting impact on both H&H and the transportation industry.

“His goal was to make me and every engineer that joins H&H, the best engineer we could be,” said H&H Geotechnical Group Manager, Arsanious Guirguis, PE. “Even if that meant being better than him as a geotechnical engineer because he knew the importance of surrounding himself with strong technical geotechnical engineers.”

Congratulations to Ray on this well-deserved recognition.

The Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes individuals who have made long-term, significant contributions to the concrete and construction industry throughout their careers.
