Our Story
MFA is a Memphis-based joint venture formed in 2017 to address the growing need for program managers with a deep understanding of the building process. This joint venture was established in response to a request for services from the Memphis Cook Convention Center. Three firms recognized that by combining their strengths, they could create a more effective and powerful program management team.
This collaboration is based on the belief that their combined skills, expertise, and past successes make them well-suited to meet the city’s needs and represent its interests in several significant projects.
MFA’s core focus is on providing program management services, particularly in the context of complex construction projects. Their aim is to ensure that each project they undertake meets its objectives efficiently, stays within budget, and satisfies all stakeholders involved. MFA’s extensive collective experience in design, construction, and program management totals 121 years, making them well-equipped to handle various aspects of a project, including budgeting, scheduling, risk management, and coordination of different stakeholders.
One of the key aspects of MFA’s mission is their commitment to the community and their understanding of the significance of large-scale projects in contributing to the growth and development of Memphis. They not only ensure the success of individual projects but also have the potential to have a positive and lasting impact on the city’s infrastructure, economy, and overall well-being.
Our Mission
Our Mission
As licensed architects in a combined 30 states and more than 5,000 projects across resumes, the MFA team is equipped to provide a plethora of services other firms cannot.
Unlike a real estate manager, engineer, or contractor who may have extensive knowledge and insight into certain aspects of the building project, this team understands the entire process; from preliminary and schematic design all the way through construction and closeout.
Core Values

We serve as the primary point of contact between the design team, consultants, and construction team, reducing potential for miscommunication.
Continuous Learning and Adaptability
We understand the importance of staying updated with current trends, technologies, regulation, and market demands. Our industry and technical knowledge enable us to oversee the value engineering process with confidence.
On-time delivery
We are familiar with the most up to date schedule and budget tracking software, using them to ensure on-time delivery.
Substantial Financial Responsibility
We aim to manage projects that are both cost effective and budget conscious while yet meeting the desired aesthetic and functional goals.
