Synergi appoints Neff as president

Manhattan, NY Synergi, an award-winning international team of engineers, fabricators, and installers of turnkey architectural stairs, has appointed Tracy Lea Neff as president. Neff, who previously served as chief operating officer, will lead Synergi’s integrated operations model as the firm continues strengthening its foundation for innovation, delivery excellence, and consistent, high-quality project execution.

As president, Neff will work alongside Synergi’s CEO and senior leadership team to guide the firm into its next phase of innovation and growth. She will oversee the full operations platform — spanning pre-construction, engineering, fabrication, and construction —refining organizational procedures and strengthening the control that anchors Synergi’s approach. By unifying these teams under one coordinated process, Neff will drive operational efficiency, elevate quality, and reinforce the confidence and trust that define the firm’s work. This strategic alignment positions Synergi to continue building on its reputation for craftsmanship, collaboration, and delivery excellence across national and international markets.

“Our goal is to over-deliver on every project,” said Neff. “By unifying our pre-construction, engineering, fabrication, and construction teams under one operations strategy, we’re strengthening communication, refining our processes, and driving the control necessary to exceed client expectations. Consistency, trust, and precision remain at the center of everything we do.”

During her tenure as COO, Neff oversaw Synergi’s engineering, fabrication, and construction groups, strengthening coordination across technical teams and refining workflows to support more controlled, efficient project delivery. Over the past 18 months, she immersed herself in the firm’s technical and organizational landscape — identifying opportunities to streamline processes, reinforcing team structure, and helping position Synergi for national and international growth.

Neff also championed the development of Synergi’s Elevate Safety Plan, establishing best-in-class safety and quality standards across every project.

“Tracy’s leadership has strengthened our ability to deliver technically complex, design-driven stair systems with the control and craftsmanship our partners expect,” said Jim Admiraal, CEO of Synergi. “Her understanding of the full project lifecycle — paired with her commitment to safety, quality, and client service — positions Synergi for its next phase of innovation and growth.”
