Combining the right expertise at the beginning of project to drive decision making is something we are passionate about. Listening to our customers to help determine appropriate energy, water and IAQ goals and documenting them in a basis of design coupled with energy modeling to inform massing, site orientation, envelope criteria, daylighting strategies and MEP system selection with the DNA imprint of cost consciousness, constructability and operability is something we bring together in a uniquely McKinstry way.
Designing with the end in mind yields best-in-class systems efficiency, occupant comfort and lower facility operational costs. It also removes the tendency to over-engineer for any and all outcomes. You get the building you need featuring the right performance, capabilities and budget.
We see opportunities where others see problems and challenges. Our engineering approach leverages a whole-building view. Design assumptions and decisions are based on real information, including construction costs and lead timing, building trend data, system comparison studies or early, focused detailing in congested areas.
McKinstry provides integrated solutions informed by our construction, energy, building operations and service professionals. Our designers offer a unique point of view with every project: inventive and outcome based. The methodologies we use carry less risk and deliver a cost-effective, dependable design capable of meeting the strictest energy, building and sustainability criteria.
