Your single source for building MEP systems
Effective building construction and the supporting mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems begin at the foundation—with a comprehensive design customized for project needs and budget. As a true design/build mechanical contractor McKenney’s is uniquely positioned in our markets. Our company pairs the extensive design experience of our in-house professional engineers and over six decades of mechanical construction expertise with electrical design partners to provide single-source accountability to the design & construction team. Demanding architects and owners understand the distinct value this provides. McKenney’s delivers on this each and every day.
Cost is a factor in every project. However, cost control is a factor in the success of every project. For more than 60 years, we’ve served the building community with full-service design/build and design/assist capabilities. Because we manage every step of the building life cycle from design to construction to service and maintenance—including automated controls, security, commissioning, energy services and more—we effectively bridge the divide between design decisions and the impacts on capital budgets. Our team knows the cost of alternative mechanical systems and understands the financial impacts of design decisions. Couple this with an extensive knowledge of the fabrication and installation of energy-efficient mechanical systems and the result is a seamless blend of design and construction services that provide MEP systems tailored to your specific need while adhering to your budget—thus eliminating the delays and costs associated with the “value-engineering” process.
Design with construction costs in mind

MORE EFFICIENT CONSTRUCTION OPENS THE DOOR TO BOTTOM-LINE SAVINGS.
McKenney’s ensures that our designs are coordinated construction models. Utilizing the latest BIM software our in-house modelers integrate all aspects of building construction and operation—from spatial coordination to fabrication to installation and service requirements—into our designs for precise installation, high performance and maximum system efficiency. Our team of experienced engineers creates designs which are fully coordinated with the architectural elements of the building to expedite construction, mitigate errors and reduce cost overruns. By incorporating key constructability principles during coordination, we leverage our in-house resources and expertise to minimize waste while seamlessly employing lean design practices. McKenney’s design/build services will shorten the typical design-bid-build process and drive down project costs. Simply stated, if McKenney’s designs and builds it, we guarantee it. Our dedication to green building practices improves building performance while protecting the environment. With our team of nearly 50 LEED®-Accredited Professionals we provide unparalleled value by helping you realize sustainable, affordable solutions that encourage healthier, more productive operations. McKenney’s helps bring buildings to life.
ADMINISTER GREATER COST SAVINGS
Every problem has a solution and McKenney’s offers unmatched experience to identify system alternatives and technologies that cost-effectively drive innovative designs to market. Our design/build delivery method eliminates costly re-design for uncoordinated items, the need for the value engineering process—greatly reducing the time and expense associated with owner-driven changes —and the typical RFI and submittal processes. Additionally, we administer this proven method with a single point of contact and minimize your contract administration expenses.
THE BLUEPRINT IS SIMPLE.
A comprehensive, integrated strategy carried out by experienced, in-house professionals delivers consistent, high-quality results. With a dedicated team of designers, project managers, tradespeople and field professionals, McKenney’s integrates services throughout the design/build process to ensure quality control is never compromised.

SPEED TO MARKET AND TOTAL COST OF
Shorter cycles, lower total cost of ownership
are important to every project. Our team quickly incorporates the vision, owner requirements and budget into a comprehensive design. Our design/build processes allow a seamless flow from schematic design to construction documents to fabrication, thus shortening the overall construction schedule by eliminating the lengthy time and cost associated with the traditional shop drawing and submittal processes. We drive lowest total cost of ownership through collaboration with our in-house preconstruction team. Our engineers evaluate design alternatives in real time weighing first costs, operating costs and the owner’s time value of money to make educated decisions—all with little or no impact to the project schedule.
