OUR SERVICES
MEP+FP Design
Our approach emphasizes practical, well-coordinated solutions that account for existing conditions, system performance, and long-term operation—ensuring designs that are both constructible and reliable.
Mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection system design
Fire alarm and life safety system integration
Existing building renovations and infrastructure upgrades
Load analysis and system sizing
Equipment selection and specification
Construction documents and permitting support
Coordination with architectural and structural disciplines
Construction administration and field support
Building Review
Our assessments are grounded in real-world experience, with a focus on how systems operate within existing buildings. We provide clear, actionable recommendations that help owners and project teams prioritize upgrades, improve reliability, and align with current codes and standards—without unnecessary scope or disruption.
Existing MEP/FP system condition assessments
Code and compliance evaluations (NYC and applicable jurisdictions)
Due diligence reviews for property acquisition or lease
Infrastructure and capacity analysis
Identification of deficiencies and life safety concerns
Capital improvement and upgrade planning
Energy and system performance observations
Review of existing drawings and field verification
Feasibility studies for renovations and tenant fit-outs
Construction Administration
Our team works closely with contractors, owners, and project teams to address field conditions, respond to questions, and maintain coordination across all disciplines. With a strong understanding of existing buildings and construction constraints, we provide practical guidance that keeps projects moving while maintaining quality and compliance.
Review of shop drawings and product submittals
Responses to RFIs and contractor inquiries
Site visits and field observations
Coordination with contractors and project teams
Evaluation of field conditions and constructability
Review of change orders and cost proposals
Punch list development and closeout support
Verification of system installation and performance
Infrastructure Upgrades
With a deep understanding of existing conditions and system constraints, we develop practical upgrade strategies that align with current codes, capacity requirements, and long-term operational needs. Our approach prioritizes constructability, phasing, and minimal disruption to building operations.
Evaluation of existing infrastructure and system capacity
Electrical service upgrades and distribution system improvements
Mechanical system replacements and modernization
Plumbing and fire protection system upgrades
Fire alarm and life safety system modernization
Phasing and sequencing of work in occupied buildings
Coordination with utility providers and authorities having jurisdiction (AHJs)
Code Consulting
From early feasibility through final approvals, we work with project teams to interpret requirements, identify potential challenges, and develop compliant solutions. Our goal is to provide clear direction that minimizes risk, avoids delays, and supports efficient project execution.
Code analysis for mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems
NYC code compliance (NYC Building Code, Fire Code, Energy Code, etc.)
Occupancy classification and egress considerations (as applicable to MEP/FP scope)
Fire alarm and life safety system requirements
Energy code compliance and documentation
Coordination with authorities having jurisdiction (DOB, FDNY, etc.)
Responses to plan examiner comments and objections
Code review of existing conditions and proposed upgrades
Peer Review
Drawing on extensive experience across a wide range of project types, we identify potential issues, inconsistencies, and opportunities for improvement early in the design process. Our goal is to enhance system reliability, reduce risk, and support informed decision-making for owners and project teams.
Independent review of MEP/FP design documents
Evaluation of system performance and design approach
Code and life safety compliance review
Identification of coordination issues and design conflicts
Review of equipment selection and system sizing
Constructability and installation considerations
Value engineering and cost-saving opportunities
Review of existing conditions and proposed upgrades
Written reports with clear findings and recommendations
