About us
Established in St. Louis in 1980, KAI Enterprises has grown into one of the leading and most respected design and build firms. We provide delivery-oriented building solutions nationwide with a diverse portfolio of experience, 150+ in-house multi-discipline professionals, and expertise in both design and construction delivery. More importantly, we are designers and builders out to make a difference in our communities. Through our integrated design and build strategy, we offer both award-winning design services (architecture, interior design and engineering) and build services (general contracting and program, project and construction management) all under one roof. Our goal is to incorporate these two strengths to deliver the best value, solution and people to achieve your vision, budget and schedule. Currently serving as the Executive Architect for the National Juneteenth Museum, KAI seeks out culturally conscious, and politically sensitive projects that will make lasting differences in the lives they touch. KAI was built upon a foundation of teamwork and collaboration and has since grown into one of the largest minority-owned firms in the AEC industry.

Grab your favorite condiments! 🍔 🌭 Our KAI and The UP Companies leadership took a break from the office to fire up the grill and treat the STL team to a delicious lunch! They donned their aprons and served up hamburgers, hot dogs, sides, and desserts for everyone. A big shoutout to our activities committee for organizing this event! It was a great day of good food, friendly competition (cornhole champs, anyone?), and connecting with our UPCO family. #TransformingCommunities #CompanyCulture #GrillMasters #SummerCookout

In the wake of the devastation caused by Hurricane Beryl, the importance of robust emergency centers in the Gulf Coast states has never been clearer. We are proud to be part of the team developing a critical new Emergency Operations Center in Dallas. This design-build project involves the construction of a single-story, 36,900-square-foot structural concrete building. One-third of this facility will consist of a 16,000-square-foot hardened secure area dedicated to emergency operations. Additionally, a 9,000-square-foot warehouse space will include seven vehicle bays and a service mezzanine, providing essential support for emergency response activities. In our role of providing construction project management services, we’re working closely with Dallas County on scheduling, safety, and budgeting to guarantee the success of this essential project. We’re working alongside great partners KAI Enterprises, Kaizen Development Partners, LLC, and Azteca-Omega Group, LLC to deliver an innovative and safe building that will serve every Dallas resident, present and future. The completion of the emergency operations center is not just about building a structure; it's about enhancing the safety and preparedness of the Dallas community. Stay tuned for more updates as we progress on this vital initiative. #EmergencyPreparedness #Dallas #DesignBuild #CommunitySafety #ProjectManagement #ResilientInfrastructure

Natural disasters have devastated the Gulf Coast region in recent years, and now, more than ever, we need robust emergency preparedness. That includes structures like the Emergency Operations Center project McKissack & McKissack is currently working on in Dallas. Once completed, the 36,900-square-foot structural concrete building will feature a fortified 16,000-square-foot space dedicated to emergency operations and a 9,000-square-foot warehouse with seven vehicle bays. We are providing construction project management services, working closely with Dallas County on scheduling, safety, and budgeting to guarantee the success of this essential project. Our partners KAI Enterprises, Kaizen Development Partners, LLC, and Azteca-Omega Group, LLC, are on the ground with the Dallas team to ensure we deliver this project the McKissack & McKissack way: with excellence. The completion of this emergency operations center will reinforce and fortify Dallas’ preparedness planning and provide necessary support in the event of another any future natural disaster. I am excited to see this come together! #EmergencyPreparedness #Dallas #DesignBuild #CommunitySafety #ProjectManagement #ResilientInfrastructure
