Our Vision

MDHEvo, LLC Co-Founder Marlyn Cruza Huard

Our Story

Humann Building Solutions was formed in 1998 to address the specific needs of several clients who were seeking to work with Building Professionals who would be their advocates and project managers to ensure that their needs were addressed and Owners Project Requirements addressed. From those humble beginnings as Engineering and Management Professionals we have continued to grow, expand and evolve into new and aligned fields.

MDH Evolution is the natural progression beyond the 2018 formation of Humann Inc which arose from Daniel Huard’s ongoing commitment to Lifelong Learning and Leadership. The requests for additional professional services capacity and credentialed credibility mandated an evolution which as well for best business practices requires the segregation of our business lines from each other to meet needs of our Clients and to as well clearly delineate the work we are credentialed in and capable to complete at the highest levels of competence and credibility.

In fact our LEED Fellow co-founder Daniel A. Huard has been referred to as the ‘Godfather of Sustainability’ within the Green Building and Net Zero networks and at events since 2018.
