FYI- the engineers and architects that design these projects are these “consultants”. I think your use of “most” might be a touch misguided.

Yeah, I am one of those consultants and work with MBTA, OGS, and NYCSCA often. They basically outsource the work they don't have people to do in-house. We are called "consultants" just because we are a third party in most cases.
