Crawford & Associates Anounces MEP New Hires

Crawford & Associates is growing! In the month of February, C&A welcomed two new employees to its MEP division: Christopher J. Knox and Elyse Portanova.

Chris comes to us as a graduate from Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY. He earned his BS with Distinction in Mechanical Engineering. Mr. Knox is no stranger to C&A. Being a local resident of Hillsdale, NY, Mr. Knox interned with C&A throughout his summer breaks from school. Knox works on a variety of projects in both the civil and mechanical divisions at Crawford. He is often involved in pump sizing, HVAC load calculation, and HVAC equiptment sizing.

Elyse Portanova is a recent graduate from Renssalear Polytechic Institute in Troy, NY. She earned her BS in Electrical Engineering with a concentration in electronics. Elyse will be handling the lighting and power design for the MEP team.

We are very excited to have these two qualified engineers on our staff!

C&A Partners with NYSERDA

Recently, Crawford & Associates became a Business Partner with NYSERDA's Commercial Lighting Program (CLP). As a Business Parnter, C&A qualifies for design incentives when eligible projects meet the requirements of the CLP. Our clients will benefit in two ways: they will be gaining an efficient lighting design and will also become eligible for incentives to be used for installation costs.
