We Know Buildings, and We Understand Business
At Criterium-Hanna Engineers, we never forget that business owners often own buildings too. That’s why we bring deep insight into commercial real estate, property transactions, environmental solutions, facility management, and capital planning. As a result, our clients from coast to coast build equity and maximize profits. In addition, we help protect the people who live and work in their properties every day.
More Than Professional Engineers
Of course, we are licensed Professional Engineers. Beyond that, we’re successful entrepreneurs too. For example, our clients include real estate investment trusts, corporate real estate owners and managers, and financial institutions. Insurance companies and government enterprises across Monmouth and Middlesex Counties also rely on us.
You need an engineering firm that covers every building system. Just as important, you need fast answers and real solutions to your challenges. Criterium-Hanna Engineers delivers both, with the full spectrum of commercial engineering services.
Our Commercial Engineering Services
Because of our years of engineering experience, we can support you at every stage of ownership. Here’s how we help:
A licensed Professional Engineer performs or reviews every commercial building inspection we complete. In addition, each engineer brings training, testing, and extensive experience in building condition assessment. As a result, our building inspection reports give clear guidance in plain, conversational language. They explain the current condition of your building and the best way to maintain or repair it.
Environmental regulations vary from region to region. However, our national network of engineers understands them all. We follow the ASTM E1527 standard for every Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. As a result, you get thorough commercial due diligence and reduced liability. In addition, we can tailor the scope of each assessment to any site or situation.
Criterium-Hanna Engineers designs every property condition assessment report around your real estate due diligence needs. Each report goes beyond the ASTM E2018 standard. At the same time, we tailor our findings to your unique goals. As a result, you can invest with confidence, knowing Criterium-Hanna Engineers is by your side.
Let our licensed Professional Engineers show you how to plan ahead and maximize your profits. First, we map out your repair and replacement costs over a 20-year period. Then, we turn those numbers into a detailed maintenance plan. As a result, you extend the useful life of your building assets.
Our recommendations help you reduce your taxes and improve your building’s cash flow. An engineering-based cost segregation study gives you accurate cost estimates for newly acquired or constructed real estate. This is especially valuable for projects over $1 million. In addition, the study covers future renovations, expansions, and fit-outs. Criterium-Hanna Engineers provides a comprehensive analysis and in-depth cost allocation, so you get the full benefit.
A commercial building energy audit can reduce operating costs and improve your building’s performance. In fact, many of our licensed Professional Engineers are also LEED Accredited Professionals. As a result, they can guide your project through LEED certification. They also verify ENERGY STAR ratings for eligible buildings. Finally, our energy audits uncover efficiency and cost-saving opportunities in any type of building.
Clients often rely on Criterium-Hanna Engineers for forensic insights and testimony during insurance investigations. That’s because we bring extensive experience to every case. In addition, we explain complex engineering concepts clearly. As a result, our clients gain a real competitive advantage.
Many people don’t expect engineers to be strong communicators. However, Criterium-Hanna Engineers insists on it. In fact, we select our engineers partly for their ability to communicate clearly with clients and on their behalf. Our expert witnesses also bring years of experience giving testimony.
We’ve Worked on Every Type of Building
Our projects range from Class A offices and historic retrofits to large shopping malls and strip centers. We also work on condominiums, corner apartments, motels, and resort hotels. In addition, we serve warehouses, mobile home parks, nursing homes, and hospitals. Simply put, we’ve seen it all. Along the way, we’ve set the standard for clear communication, customer service, and engineering excellence. That’s why we want to be your consulting engineering firm of choice.
