Direct peers

• ME Engineers: Specialty MEP and lighting/technology design firm serving cultural, entertainment, education, and sports venues — directly comparable in integrated MEP + lighting design expertise, particularly given HP Engineering's work on 21c Museum Hotel and similar venues.
• Smith Seckman Reid (SSR): Full-service engineering firm delivering MEP, structural, and commissioning services across healthcare, education, and infrastructure — overlapping service offering, multi-office regional model, and vertical mix makes it a close comparable.
• Affiliated Engineers, Inc. National MEP engineering consulting firm specializing in mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection design for healthcare, higher education, science & technology, and cultural facilities — directly comparable in service mix, project type, and client profile to HP Engineering.
• Henderson Engineers: Employee-owned MEP engineering firm focused on building systems design across commercial, healthcare, retail, sports, and mission-critical verticals — a strong direct peer given similar service portfolio, vertical mix, and reputation-driven go-to-market.
• DBR Engineering Consultants: MEP engineering design firm with offices across the South-Central U.S. serving education, healthcare, and public-sector clients. Notably, HP Engineering's Dallas Regional Engineering Director joined from DBR, indicating direct talent-market overlap and service-line comparability.
• Jordan & Skala Engineers: MEP, structural, and technology engineering design firm with multi-office U.S. presence serving commercial, healthcare, education, and government clients — comparable in service breadth, regional delivery model, and federal/public project exposure.

Broad incumbents

• Olsson: Engineering and design firm with strong building systems practice across the Midwest and South serving public, private, and federal clients — competes for similar healthcare, education, and government MEP commissions at the regional level.
• Burns & McDonnell: Large, multi-discipline engineering, architecture, and consulting firm with deep federal, healthcare, and energy-sector practices — a broader incumbent that competes on larger MEP/facility engagements while HP Engineering focuses on regional building-scale work.
• Stantec: Global engineering, architecture, and environmental consulting firm with a significant buildings practice spanning healthcare, education, and community development — competes on larger multi-disciplinary scopes while offering the same core MEP building-system services.

Others

• IMEG Corp. Top-5 U.S. engineering design and consulting firm that acquired HP Engineering in July 2025. Listed as ecosystem 'other' rather than peer given the parent/subsidiary relationship, but highly comparable in service portfolio and the reference point for HP Engineering's expanded capabilities.
