Tailored Solutions for Institutional Clients

Portfolio-Wide Support

We provide services not just at the project level, but across your entire facility portfolio. From multi-campus roof assessments to system-wide façade evaluations, we develop long-term strategies that help prioritize funding, mitigate risk, and improve asset management.

Programmatic Services

Our firm can support capital improvement planning, routine maintenance programs, and envelope commissioning standards across all projects — not just one-time engagements. We work with facility directors, capital planners, and procurement teams to implement scalable QA/QC systems.

Stakeholder Coordination

Our consultants are adept at interfacing with architects, contractors, facility staff, legal teams, and internal boards. We provide documentation, meeting participation, and presentation materials to ensure institutional stakeholders are informed and aligned.

Compliance & Risk Mitigation

We help institutional clients meet complex regulatory, environmental, and insurance requirements. Our documentation and third-party testing support audit trails, legal defensibility, and public transparency.

Pre-Construction Envelope Planning

We collaborate during early design phases to evaluate envelope concepts, review system compatibility, and reduce lifecycle costs before construction begins. This proactive approach minimizes changes, RFIs, and performance issues later in the process.

Emergency Response & Forensic Support

From sudden envelope failures to storm-related damage, we mobilize quickly to assess conditions, document causes, and recommend immediate and long-term corrective actions. Our rapid response services support insurance claims, safety planning, and restoration efforts.
