Nature Of Business And Basis Of Presentation [Abstract]
Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation	1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation Nature of Business Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. and its affiliates (“Bowman” or “we” or the “Company”) incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia on June 5, 1995 and reincorporated in the State of Delaware on November 13, 2020. Bowman is a professional services firm delivering innovative solutions to the marketplace of customers who own, develop and maintain the built environment. Within that arena, we provide planning, design, engineering, geomatics, survey, construction management, environmental consulting and land procurement services to markets that encompass the buildings in which people live, work and learn in, the systems that provide water, electricity and other vital services, and the roads, bridges, and transportation systems used to get from place to place. We provide services to customers through fixed-price and time-and-material based contracts containing multiple milestones and independently priced deliverables. Typically, contract awards are on a negotiated basis, ranging in value from a few thousand dollars to multiple millions of dollars and can have varying durations depending on the size, scope, and complexity of the project. The Company’s workforce typically provides the full scope of engineering and other contract services. With respect to certain specialty services or other compliance requirements within a particular contract, however, we may engage third-party sub-consultants. The Company’s headquarters is located in Reston, VA and the Company has over 30 offices, throughout the United States. Initial Public Offering On May 11, 2021, we closed on our initial public offering (IPO), in which we issued and sold 3,690,000 shares of our common stock at $14.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $48.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, but before expenses of the IPO. On June 4, 2021, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 115,925 shares of the Company’s common stock at the public offering price of $14.00 per share, resulting in additional gross proceeds of approximately $1.6 million. After giving effect to this partial exercise of the overallotment option, the total number of shares sold by Bowman in its initial public offering increased to 3,805,925 shares and gross proceeds increased to approximately $53.3 million. The exercise of the over-allotment option closed on June 8, 2021, at which time the Company received net proceeds of approximately $1.5 million after underwriting discounts and commissions. Deferred offering costs consist primarily of accounting, legal, and other fees related to our IPO. We capitalized $1.3 million of deferred offering costs within prepaid and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the interim financial information includes all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows. The results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or the results for any future periods. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and related footnotes included in our final prospectus dated May 6, 2021 and filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
