About ACI Consulting Architects

Experience. Insight. Compliance. Building better outcomes since 1994.

Who We Are

Founded in 1994 as American Construction Investigations, ACI has evolved from a forensic consulting firm into a leading provider of third-party accessibility, building code, and compliance services. Now operating as ACI Consulting Architects, our team brings decades of field experience, plan review expertise, and design insight to projects across the nation.

What We Do

We partner with architects, developers, owners, and attorneys to provide technical reviews, on-site inspections, and expert consultation under the Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS), Fair Housing Act (FHA), and International Building Code (IBC). Our work helps clients reduce exposure, verify compliance, and achieve confidence in both design and construction.

Our Approach

ACI’s consultants combine architectural expertise with regulatory insight to bridge the gap between design intent and code compliance. Whether evaluating plans, inspecting completed projects, or supporting legal teams, our approach emphasizes clarity, collaboration, and defensibility, ensuring that every report and recommendation adds value.

Where We Work

ACI provides consulting services nationwide across multifamily, commercial, education, healthcare, hospitality, and mixed-use developments, helping clients achieve compliance and confidence from design through occupancy.

From design to occupancy, ACI helps ensure that every project stands on a foundation of compliance and quality.
