Building Systems (MEPS)

Elevating design for redundancy, resiliency, and reliability

People often admire the external beauty and architectural elements of buildings – both new and old. Often overlooked is the complex network of engineered systems and infrastructure within every building. A sound structure, heat in the winter, cooling in the summer, adequate lighting, power distribution, running water, information technology, life safety, and security are just a few examples of essential infrastructure necessary in a modern building. These systems are often controlled through a building automation system which allows the facility to be monitored and efficiently operated.

Careful design coordination, planning, and design go into each building system for new facilities and renovations. Well-designed and adequately commissioned building infrastructure provides a lifetime of energy efficiency, flexibility, and healthy spaces for building occupants. Many public and private clients in various industries turn to GPI for mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, structural, and civil engineering services.
