Comprehensive Process
By offering both design and procurement under one roof, Kirkpatrick & Associates
streamlines the process from start to finish. We provide owners with an estimated FF&E budget at the very beginning and have an excellent track record of ensuring the final cost is in line with client expectations. Our network of trusted domestic and international partners allows us to deliver exceptional design and quality while staying within budget. Our design, budget, and project timeline are developed together, ensuring that selections are finalized only after cost and production schedules are confirmed to meet project requirements. This full-service approach minimizes delays and miscommunication that can occur when design and purchasing are handled separately.
