KMH Integration announced that it has added Keith Hanadel to its team in an effort to expand its ability to serve media, broadcast and IT organizations.

KMH said that Hanadel joins at a time of company growth and change in the broadcast and media industries. The company said that this addition of in-house architectural design and team leadership to its project management platform reinforces KMH’s position as a system integrator with expertise in planning, technology, design and engineering needed for projects.

KMH recently launched its AV Casting approach in an effort to provide specialized engineering expertise for customers to blend AV and broadcast. The company said that the addition of Hanadel enables a fully integrated project delivery model, combining the company’s expertise across MEP coordination, engineering, fabrication, acoustics, set and lighting design, content creation and architecture under one roof.

“Our customers are working differently, and bringing Keith onboard is a perfect example of how we’re continually adapting to meet changing expectations,” said Kevin Henneman, president of KMH Integration. “Engaging us early as a single-source partner streamlines collaboration and ultimately improves project outcomes. More important, it reduces the costs and risks that come with piecing together project teams made up of third-party consultants who don’t communicate with each other and aren’t familiar with every aspect of a project’s scope.”

Hanadel has over 30 years of previous experience with planning and designing facilities for media and broadcast organizations including CBS, Disney, Univision, NBCUniversal, MLB Network, YouTube, PGA Tour and Netflix. He recently served as northeast region practice lead for media at Gensler. His career also includes 23 years at HLW International, leading the firm’s national media and entertainment practice.

KMH believes that Hanadel’s experience managing infrastructure upgrades and coordinating with MEP, engineers and construction firms, as well as directing multi-discipline design teams matches its vision for unifying all project components into a single, collaborative team effort.

“This integrated project delivery model,” he said. “eliminates the points where communication typically breaks down and provides a single point of responsibility with clear lines of accountability. We’re replacing traditional project complexity with streamlined coordination, faster timelines, and even faster decision-making. We can now come to the table with a customer and say, ‘Here’s our goal, here’s our schedule, here’s our budget. Let’s go.’”
