Distinguishing Factors
A firm that does not keep pace with the rapidly changing design and energy considerations of today's business world can not exist as a competitive player in the engineering arena. AKF's reputation for timely, top quality design is based on our specialized project specific approach to assignments and our comprehensive expertise in the areas of mechanical, electrical, sanitary, fire-protection and control systems engineering.

Technical skills, consistent performance and top quality service. All are attributes that define AKF and what differentiates us from the competition. Yet it is our ability to keep our clients satisfied and our team challenged which sets AKF apart.

Innovative
Because we provide senior-level professionals to work at the project level, we remain on the cutting-edge in providing innovative approaches and creative solutions to our client's design challenges. AKF professionals go beyond the 'usual and customary' means to provide our clients with long-term, cost-effective solutions. In addition, to our intensive "hands on" approach, we analyze each project's requirements and create an individually specialized team. Our commitment to service and new technology allows us to provide added value to the technical aspects of our projects.

Responsive
The structure of our firm consists of functional titles only and each person within the firm changes their functional title depending on the project and their role; it is this approach to our consulting organization that allows for maximum responsiveness to our clients' needs. With each new project, our organization carefully considers the appropriate staffing requirements. It is this flexibility that allows us to increase our responsiveness to serve our clients.
