PLANNING, ENGINEERING & CONSTRUCTION SERVICES

THE RIGHT EXPERTISE FOR SUCCESSFUL PROJECTS

Every project requires hundreds of decisions long before construction begins. By bringing engineering, planning, procurement and construction expertise together under one roof, we help clients make decisions with a clear understanding of how those decisions will impact cost, schedule and execution. Our engineers and builders work as one team, combining technical expertise with practical field experience to help clients align projects with the realities of how their facilities operate.

ENGINEERING

Successful projects begin with a clear understanding of goals, processes and constraints. Our engineering team works closely with clients to evaluate options, develop solutions and create designs that support long-term business objectives.

PRECONSTRUCTION

Preconstruction is where ideas become actionable plans. Our team works closely with owners, engineers and designers to develop budgets, evaluate alternatives and identify risks before they become costly problems in the field. As designs evolve, we layer in real-time cost feedback, validate assumptions against market conditions and help owners make informed decisions. Continuous cost feedback gives owners greater certainty before major commitments are made.

  • Scope and budget development
  • Cost modeling and market validation
  • Value engineering
  • Constructability reviews
  • Schedule planning
  • Market pricing and bidding

PROCUREMENT

Keen manages the sourcing and acquisition of equipment, materials and trade partners on behalf of clients, helping ensure projects receive the right solutions at the right price and on the right schedule. Acting as our client’s advocate throughout the process, we evaluate options, negotiate agreements and guide equipment and vendor selection. By leveraging trusted vendor relationships and economies of scale, we create value while helping ensure equipment performs as expected long after installation. That includes helping clients secure the training, spare parts and operational support needed to maximize performance.
