M/E Engineering, a Salas O'Brien Company

M/E Engineering, now part of Salas O'Brien since October 2025, has operated as a mechanical and electrical consulting firm for over three decades, beginning in the early 1990s. Headquartered in Schenectady, New York, the firm maintains four offices throughout New York State, serving communities across the Capital Region, Hudson Valley, and broader northeastern corridor. The firm employs more than 200 design professionals and holds a perfect 5-star rating from three client reviews, reflecting consistent satisfaction among commercial and institutional clients who engage their MEP design, commissioning, and sustainable engineering services.

What distinguishes M/E Engineering from typical consulting firms is their early and sustained commitment to sustainable building practices, earning membership among the first 100 firms in the United States Green Building Council. Their in-house capabilities span mechanical engineering, electrical systems, plumbing and fire protection design, and computational fluid dynamics modeling, a technical depth that allows complex projects to remain under single engineering roof rather than fragmented across multiple subcontractors. Additionally, their commissioning services ensure building systems perform to design specifications post-construction, a quality assurance step that protects owners from the common gap between intended and actual building performance.

The firm has contributed to projects throughout New York State that shape daily life in the communities they serve, including educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and commercial developments where reliable MEP infrastructure determines occupant comfort and operational continuity. While specific technician names do not appear in available reviews, the consistent five-star feedback indicates project teams successfully navigated the engineering challenges unique to older buildings in historic districts and modern code requirements simultaneously.
