AKF, an award-winning global engineering firm, was founded in 1989 as a traditional mechanical, electrical, and plumbing and fire protection design firm. We have since expanded our services to bring better solutions to clients and cater to unique project needs. In addition to MEP/FP design and consultation, AKF offers Analysis & Testing, Architectural Code Consulting, Building Controls, Commissioning, Critical Systems, Energy & Sustainability, Fire & Life Safety, Infrastructure, IT/AV/Security, Lighting, and Special Inspections. Our coordinated in-house services reduce project friction and overall project cost by limiting sub-consultants and providing clients a single point of contact. The scope of our integrated services enables us to remain committed to your project from inception to ongoing operations and optimization.

We are a sector-based company, focusing on client needs within Campus and Commercial environments. Our Campus group supports the needs of healthcare, higher education, K-12, science & technology, and cultural clients, while the Commercial group focuses on the corporate, retail, and residential/hospitality sectors. AKF’s ability to successfully execute projects across sectors and worldwide sets us apart from the competition, and we are able to provide 24/7 crisis response from our dedicated Commissioning team.

Our highly experienced engineers and analysts continue to focus on new ways to design for the built environment amidst the evolving landscape and trends of the ACE industry. We build flexible spaces and habitations to achieve the highest quality of convenience and comfort. AKF’s reputation has been cultivated through our fundamental principles of client-first service and engineering integrity. Since the firm’s inception in 1989, it has grown from one location with four members to over 450 members and a leadership of 24 partners across nine offices in the United States and Mexico.
