Descriptiontext

Burdette, Koehler, Murphy & Associates (BKM) is a Baltimore-based mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineering design firm founded in 1968, operating from offices in Baltimore (headquarters), Norfolk, and Raleigh. The firm provides holistic MEP design services across nine market sectors: Commercial, Government, Healthcare, Higher Education, Housing, Infrastructure, K-12 Education, Mission Critical, and Science & Technology. Its client base spans federal, state, and local government agencies, higher education institutions (Johns Hopkins, University of Maryland, Towson), healthcare providers, K-12 school systems, and private enterprises including Becton Dickinson, Prometric, and COPT Defense Properties.

BKM's service portfolio includes mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and lighting design; commissioning; building assessments; power systems studies (load flow, fault current, coordination, protection, arc flash) using SKM software; whole-building energy modeling for LEED and code compliance; and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling for critical spaces. Through its BKM Mission Critical Facilities subsidiary (bkm-mcf) and the TiePoint-bkm affiliated entity formed by a 2015 merger, the firm delivers specialized data center and mission critical engineering, claiming over 100 Continuous Availability Reviews of corporate critical facilities. All projects are characterized by principal-level involvement.

The firm generates revenue through project-based professional services fees, including negotiated per-project design fees for new construction and renovations, and recurring revenue via on-call and IDIQ contracts with government and institutional clients. Business development is led by a Principal/Chief Marketing Officer and a Director of Business Development, with new work sourced through principal relationships, industry recognition (MEP Giants, ASHRAE awards), and responses to government solicitations. The firm employs 106 staff, including 43 professional engineers, and is privately held with no disclosed outside investors.
