About
Infraday Texas is part of regional series of public sector driven infrastructure events Infraday hosts across North America. We will feature 40+ presenters from Texas cities, counties, MPOs, transit agencies, etc. in critical discussions on new programs, investments, strategies across the infrastructure spectrum. We will cover the following sectors: aviation, bridges, coastal areas, dams, drinking water, energy, levees, ports, roads, schools, solid waste, stormwater, transit, and wastewater.
The event provides both the public and private sector an opportunity to interact, network and gain knowledge of where the infrastructure market is heading in Texas – where the opportunities lie, and what the deficits are, directly from the project owners.
We invite you to join us on March 2 in Austin!

From Stantec’s website: “We’ve got the environment down to a science: Our passion drives our work around the globe. We take the time to truly understand each project—learning its past, adapting to present conditions, and preparing for future shifts. So whether we're collaborating with you on a complex permit application, monitoring a site during construction, or designing a decommissioning plan, you can count on our team to help you find the smartest solution for the project and community it supports.”
Besides just being a hard worker committed to showing up and putting in the effort, Ashley believes in the work we do. Mentoring others and identifying opportunities for collaboration motivate her daily work, where she’s responsible for technical writing and analysis in addition to marketing, business development, growth strategy, and leadership. She’s also a frequent guest speaker and presenter for environmental planning courses, and professional development and conference events.
Ashley is a proud alumna of Stanford University and the University of Texas at Austin Community and Regional Planning program. Son Beckett is at Elon University in North Carolina and son Corbin is in graduate school at Stanford University. Ashley’s husband, J.C. Schmeil, AIA LEED AP attended Stanford University and UT Architecture School and is in private practice. Traveling with her family is Ashley’s favorite hobby, followed closely by cooking and hosting dinner parties for friends. She loves skiing, yoga, and reading fiction and founded a book club that’s still going strong after 25 years.

The first digitized & up-to-date map of subsurface utilities.
One reliable source of truth, that gives all stakeholders the confidence they need to plan, design, and construct large-scale infrastructure projects.
Our technology, a combination of satellite imagery and artificial intelligence, is the tool that enables us to do so. Its ability to scan and detect visual evidence of existing buried utilities (documented or undocumented), shines a light over the type, route and location of utilities passing through your project.
Basically, you tell us where to look and we’ll let our technology generate the map you need for your project.
We help:
● Engineering firms
● General contractors
● Project / utility owners
● Consultants
● SUE firms
Plan, design and construct:
● Highways, bridges, tunnels, railways
● Water & wastewater pipelines
● Oil & gas pipelines
● Energy T&D lines
● Solar & Wind farms
● Fiber optic lines
● Any other infrastructure project

“PMWeb is a very powerful and flexible Project Management System. It has helped us streamline our processes and allowed us to make more informed and timely decisions. We have over a thousand users, hundreds of projects in the system, and over 100,000 records. The system has helped us better collaborate, easily retrieve information, and been an invaluable tool as a system of record. We just completed an external State Audit on one of our major projects with zero audit findings.”
JOHN AUDI - Assistant Director of Construction at Massport
