MEC Engineering

What MEC Engineering does

MEC Engineering (legal name MEC Electrical Engineering) is a Portland, Oregon-headquartered electrical engineering design and consulting firm founded in 2005 by Majid Habibi. The firm delivers planning, design, and construction-phase electrical services — including power distribution, mission-critical systems, substations, BIM coordination, renewable energy, surveys and analysis, instrumentation and controls, security, telecommunications, lighting, and fire alarm systems — for commercial, industrial, institutional, and government clients. Core technical capability centers on Building Information Modeling using Revit, AutoCAD, and Navisworks at LOD 400, with laser scanning and augmented reality for accurate existing-conditions capture and prefabrication documentation. The mission-critical vertical is the firm's domain specialty, supporting 99.999%+ uptime data centers and semiconductor fabrication plants (ProMOS Taiwan, Winbond, AWS Ericom Ireland, Jones Farm Hillsboro) and high-capacity industrial distribution (Grupo Modelo's Idaho malt facility, Kikkoman Folsom).

The firm is privately held and operates with a lean core team (1-10 employees) extended through a project-based delivery model, evidenced by the firm's self-disclosed "$3 Million in annual projects" capacity and 1,000+ project history. Customer mix spans named enterprise and government accounts (AWS, Grupo Modelo, ProMOS, Winbond, Kikkoman, Portland State University, City of Portland, Ericom, McMinnville Memory Care) and engineering subcontractors/collaborators (Holmes Electric, Glumac, EC Electric, Integris, Arrow Electric). The firm follows a project-based, quote-based professional services revenue model with no disclosed pricing, delivered via direct enterprise field sales through the project lifecycle from feasibility studies to construction observation.

In April 2026, MEC announced it had joined forces with engineering firm AKS effective May 1, 2026, retaining its team and client relationships while integrating into a larger platform with expanded in-house capabilities. Geographic reach spans the Pacific Northwest and broader United States, with selective international project execution in Taiwan, Ireland, and Vancouver.
