history

Donald C. Herrmann founded D. C. Herrmann & Associates in 1996. Realizing the growing demand for skilled professionals with energy and building related problem-solving capabilities, a group of associates were brought together. Through a unique combination of academic achievement and hands-on experience, our dedicated professionals work with clients to assess their concerns, offer alternative solutions and assist them in making intelligent decisions to improve their buildings carbon footprint and the overall indoor environment.

Realizing that all buildings are different, we provide a customized approach that looks at the building as an entire system comprised of smaller sub-systems that must work in harmony to be successful. This includes the building, its surroundings, present or intended use and the interoperability of all components and sub-systems. By addressing a project in its totality, clients achieve a long-term solution with the least amount of lost time and revenue. Our seasoned professionals provide an understanding of Florida’s distinctive environment that can only be realized by local knowledge and proven experience.
