The team approach to MEP systems
is based on several factors. There are several ways to
provide MEP designs however; the best method is to
understand the owner’s goals and budget in regards to the
systems they wish to install. The approach begins by
conducting several meetings with all involved parties in
order to gain an understanding of the project expectations,
budgets and requirements. The MEPCE staff conducts site visits for
existing projects in order to evaluate the existing systems
in order to identify components that can be reused and make
our recommendations. Often times, there are ways of
achieving the owner’s wishes more efficiently and less
costly than typical strategies that the owners might not be
aware of. The MEPCE team values informing owners of different
strategies and the associated costs with each method for the MEP systems.
The experienced staff members are not only
fully knowledgeable in regards to every type of MEP systems,
but are also aware of the sensitive needs that each project
requires.

MEPCE has lots of experience earning LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) & CHPS (Collaborative for High Performance Schools) certifications for
different projects. MEPCE's LEED AP certified professional staff members have meet with US Green Building
Council Board members and staff, allowing the engineers to have a deep understanding of the certification requirements.
The team enjoys green design, integrate lessons learned from
their research in
efficiency and energy into everyday design practices for all projects and like to set examples
for environment responsibility. Environmental responsibility is something that everyone must play a role in.
MEPCE takes a much higher personal
responsibility for this. The staff takes pride in researching and using their experience to provide systems that do not harm the environment during the manufacturing, installation and use of
the products. The team is dedicated to meeting the multiple carbon initiatives by reducing emissions and putting emphasis of clean renewable energy.
MEPCE's staff are also experts in renewable energy options and strategies.

Having to have opportunities to work with the best architects, interior planners and highway illumination designers have allowed
MEPCE's lighting team to learn from the best. MEPCE's staff understands the "psychology" of light.
The engineers and designers understand that mood and other feelings can be set just by the lighting in a space.
The staff enjoys providing clients with lighting layouts that are unique, cost
conscious and functional. The team understands the multiple aspects of lighting from ballasts to
temperatures to reflective efficiencies. In addition,
MEPCE's electrical engineers are able to meet the ever
tight energy code requirements through their high levels of experience.
The team takes input from our clients and provide a product that is functional and
aesthetic, allowing the clients to worry about one less thing.

In order to integrate the multitude of systems, controls are utilized.
MEPCE's mechanical, electrical and technology engineers
collaborate to create custom, user friendly controls for the different systems.
The team designs simple, yet very capable control systems for every
environment. The engineers have designed total building systems controls (HVAC, lighting, security, fire alarm) to emergency power operations (transfer switches, fault sensors, generator sequences).
The team can not only provide you total control of all your systems, but
will provide it in an integrated package that is easy to monitor and control from anywhere!
