About the firm
Experience that shows up in the documents.
Barber & Associates is a foodservice consulting firm built on a simple premise: the best way to control cost and schedule is to design completely and coordinate early.
Our approach
We produce comprehensive design documentation, with a working understanding of the related trades — plumbing, electrical, mechanical, and fire suppression — that every commercial kitchen depends on.
That coordination is informed by genuine construction experience. Because we understand how a kitchen actually gets built, we identify potential issues while they're still lines on a drawing, before they become costly change orders in the field.
The result is documentation that contractors can build from with confidence, and operators can rely on for the life of the space.
Leadership
Theodore Barber, Founder
Theodore Barber founded Barber & Associates to bring design, programming, and procurement under one roof — giving clients a single, accountable partner from the first concept sketch through final equipment installation.
