What EC4B Engineering does

EC4B Engineering, P.C. is a privately held professional Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) engineering services firm headquartered in Pittsford (Rochester), New York, with a regional office in Fort Myers, Florida. Founded in 2011 and operating as a New York professional corporation, the firm is led by three PE-credentialed partners — D. Bruce Keeley, Eric J. Strassner, and William A. Murray, Jr. — who collectively bring 23 to 32+ years of specialized MEP design experience. The company employs a staff of over 20 design and engineering professionals and holds Professional Engineer licensure in 35+ U.S. states, enabling nationwide project delivery.

The firm's core offering spans mechanical engineering (HVAC, heating plants, heat recovery, industrial piping), electrical engineering (power distribution, emergency power, green electrical systems, lighting, fire alarm), and plumbing/fire protection engineering (domestic water, sanitary, medical gas, sprinklers, NFPA-compliant systems). Underlying technology includes Building Information Modeling (BIM), CAD, and energy modeling software used to support specialty practices in geothermal HVAC, combined heat and power, cannabis cultivation/extraction MEP, cleanrooms, EV charging station engineering, and sustainability consulting (LEED, EnergyStar, Passive House, ASHRAE audits). EC4B does not develop or sell software products; the technology stack is purely a delivery tool for professional services.

Revenue is generated exclusively through project-based professional engineering fees billed per engagement, with pricing custom to scope, size, and complexity. The go-to-market is sales-led and enterprise-focused, driven by direct relationships with property developers, municipal governments, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, financial institutions, and cannabis operators. Distribution is via direct B2B engagement (website quote requests, phone outreach) supported by the firm's two physical offices and nationwide licensing footprint. Documented customer engagements span at least 12 named organizations across seven industries, including Newman Development, ESL Federal Credit Union, Nazareth College, the Town of Henrietta, and multiple cannabis operators. The firm has no institutional investors, no parent company, no funding rounds, and no disclosed revenue.
