KEEN PROJECT DELIVERY SYSTEM™
Our approach is structured around the Keen Project Delivery System (KPDS), a workflow based on Lean Construction principles and years of field experience. It starts with a Front-End Loading (FEL) process that brings structure to each phase, helping teams define scope, cost and schedule before advancing from schematic design to Issued for Construction (IFC) documents.
Discipline from the Start
Technology is only as good as the engineering discipline behind it. We define scopes, deliverables and timeframes early on with precision to give the project solid footing. And because our engineering, project management and field operations teams work as one, that discipline carries across the project.
SERVICES
INSIGHT AT EVERY STAGE
From the first site scan to final installation, we apply advanced tools and technologies that give our teams and our clients greater visibility and accuracy.
3D Scanning & Reality Capture
We capture exact dimensions and conditions of your existing facility, giving our team accurate, data-driven benchmarks that remove guesswork from the design process.
3D Modeling
Using data from the scan, we build a precise digital model of your project. This includes every system, structural element and detail, so design decisions can be made in three dimensions.
Building Information Modeling (BIM)
Scheduling, sequencing, specifications and equipment data are layered into the 3D model, creating a more complete digital view of the project that every discipline can work from.
Drone & Aerial Imagery
We use drone and aerial imagery to capture a current, accurate view of project sites, helping teams plan more effectively, track progress and make better-informed decisions in the field.
Virtual Reality
Virtual reality offers an immersive way to experience and evaluate design options at any stage of a project. This gives clients and project teams a shared, three-dimensional view that makes decisions and alignment easier.
Augmented Reality
Augmented reality brings digital project information into your physical space, so you can see exactly how a new design will look and function within your existing facility.
Structural Analysis
We evaluate how buildings, equipment and support systems will perform under real-world conditions, giving clients greater confidence in the safety, stability and long-term reliability of their projects.
Particle Flow Analysis
Using Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) software, we simulate the true behavior of flowable materials to optimize throughput, reduce product damage and validate process changes with data before they’re implemented.
Download InfoEXPERIENCE TO SOLVE COMPLEX CHALLENGES
Our in-house team brings deep experience in a range of engineering specialties to support the markets we serve, including commercial spaces, milling, food, grain, seed, pet food and renewable fuels.
Team members carry professional engineering degrees and PE designations including chemical, geotechnical, mechanical, electrical, agricultural, civil and construction engineering.
That expertise also extends to our Operations team, which is stacked with engineers from varied backgrounds. Together, these capabilities support full design-build and EPC projects, as well as focused improvements within existing facilities.
