Nayyar & Nayyar International

What Nayyar & Nayyar International does

Nayyar & Nayyar International, P.C. (NNI) is a Chicago-based, MBE-certified structural engineering design firm founded in 1985 that delivers a full suite of building structure services — including structural steel frames, cast-in-place concrete, post-tensioned concrete, precast concrete, load-bearing masonry, and cold-formed steel construction — across healthcare, higher education, government and military, hospitality, commercial, multi-family residential, industrial, and specialty/monumental buildings. The firm's specialized offerings include Anti-Terrorism Force Protection (ATFP) design, progressive collapse design, LEED-accredited sustainable design integration, value engineering, structural peer review, design-build services, and signature/monumental structural design. Its project portfolio features institutional anchors such as Rush Copley Medical Center, University of Illinois ARC Center, University of Wisconsin Sage Hall (LEED Gold), US Army National Guard Readiness Centers, Marine Corps Quantico academic and dining facilities, the Chicago Shakespeare Theater at Navy Pier, and the Westin Roco Ki resort in Punta Cana.

The firm operates as a privately held professional corporation (P.C.) domiciled in Illinois with a single headquarters at 223 W Jackson Blvd, Suite 802, Chicago. Headcount is reported as 1–10 employees, consistent with a boutique consultancy model where senior engineers deliver project work directly. The firm is independently owned with no parent company, subsidiaries, or external investment disclosed, and no funding rounds, M&A activity, or public-market listing are indicated.

Revenue is generated exclusively through professional services fees on a project-by-project basis; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated per scope, complexity, and duration. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales — direct engagement with architectural firms, developers, general contractors, construction managers, and government agencies — beginning at initial planning stages and continuing through construction administration. Marketing relies on professional referrals and a public project portfolio rather than paid channels, and the firm reports no active social media presence. International project delivery has been demonstrated in China (Dalian) and the Dominican Republic (Punta Cana, Santo Domingo), alongside extensive Continental US work.
