We let the end user concentrate on their mission while we design spaces to optimize their work. We want educators to focus on teaching, doctors and patients on healing, business owners on productivity, and building owners on anticipating and executing on the changing needs of users. OUR CORE VALUES Our Core Values are the cornerstone of everything we do. We believe that, by fostering a firm-wide culture of service and commitment to the needs and successes of one another, we ensure that our relationships with clients are informed by the same culture and values. THE AKF STORY OUR APPROACH Our approach relies on a rich mix of talent, experience, and innovation. From up-front planning through construction, we seek pragmatic and cost-effective solutions. On projects large or small, our engineers find ingenious ways to streamline the process, improve the specifications, and out-think problems before they happen. Our approach is built around communication. At AKF, the Principal in Charge and Project Manager remain with the project from inception through construction and occupancy of the facility. All project leaders are in constant communication with the owner, architect, and other consultants throughout all phases of the project. This allows for continuity throughout the project lifespan. THE AKF INSTITUTE Learning is the cornerstone of engineering excellence. The AKF Institute provides opportunities for our members and clients to expand their knowledge, helping to provide better projects.
