SMA truly believes we are in the business of not only designing great buildings, but more importantly, building relationships with our clients. Our resume includes services for commercial, institutional, educational, historic preservation, healthcare, and military projects, many of which manifest repeat clients. We emphasize an in-depth programming phase for each project identifying our client’s vision and needs as this is the foundation of a successful project. We embrace an integrated design process and delivery between the construction disciplines, specialized consultants, and building contractors to achieve the most cost effective and timely solutions. Each client has different program requirements and budgets to guide our performance from project inception through construction administration, and continue long after owner occupancy. We are committed to our client’s satisfaction by providing excellent design that will serve our client’s mission and users.

Building projects are complex and expensive. Ultimately, buildings make a mark on their neighborhood and community that lasts as long - or longer - than the people who build them. SMA has the broad experience that assures the mark you make will be successful both today and tomorrow.
