The scope of this project included conference rooms, focus rooms, an open office space with rising desks, a board room, and a lobby/reception area. Notable features include high-end wood veneer finishes imported from Japan, ALUR linear glass throughout the office, and state-of-the-art audio visual components installed in each of the conference rooms and board room.

Bamboo Therapeutics a Pfizer Company

11,565 SF lab renovation for new tenant functions. This project upgraded and modified existing speculative labs for new tenant science. Renovated R&D and BSL2 labs are supported with new finishes throughout support areas. The end users were able to use much of the labs in their speculative state and therefore the construction was efficient and the schedule was timely. Existing casework remained in place alleviating the long lead for new.

Novan Lab and Office

15,420 SF interior renovation for lab and office headquarters. This project included a two-phase approach with Phase 1 consisting of a support office and analytical lab with lab casework package, new drug manufacturing suites, and was fast-tracked and completed in 3.5 months.
Phase 2 consisted of GMP manufacturing suites, a process piping system, cold rooms, warehouse storage, a utility corridor, and a new exterior equipment yard. The new exterior equipment yard housed new chillers, generators, NO gas system, chemical waste tanks, and waste containment pit.

Triangle Surgery Center

Construction of an addition to the Triangle Surgery Center and renovation to the existing one-story ambulatory surgery center. Expansions included a waiting room, reception area, staff lounge, and sterile storage areas. New offices, operating rooms, recovery bed areas, nurses stations, and an electrical room were built. Work had to be coordinated around daily operations of the site so we did not impact surgeries and procedures of the client. During construction, we managed a project for a pedestrian bridge with a contractor that was contracted directly by the client. This connected to a parking lot across the valley for overflow staff parking. Challenges included dealing with supply chain issues, and coordinating deliveries so as to minimize the time impact on the client.
