Industrial Manufacturing is the production of products for use or sale, using labor and machines, tools, and chemical or biological processing or formulation. Most commonly applied to industrial design, in which raw materials from primary industry are transformed into finished goods on a large scale. Such goods may be sold to other manufacturers.
Commercial Tenant Improvement typically includes demolition, office area build out, floors, walls, etc. Often includes electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and custom finishes.
A cleanroom is a controlled environment designed to remove pollutants such as dust, airborne microbes, and aerosol particles, creating an ultra-clean workspace. Cleanrooms are commonly used in the manufacturing of electronics, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and other products that require highly regulated conditions.
A Change in the physical location of a business. Due to expansion, consolidation or downsizing. The process can include decommissioning the current facility, preparing and building out the new space, and moving equipment, furniture, and other assets.
Design-build projects combine both design and construction services under a single contract. This “turn-key” approach eliminates the need for separate design and construction agreements. The contractor, architect, and engineers collaborate as one team from start to finish, creating a more efficient process and a smoother experience for the owner.

Plan & Spec building process is the traditional method used by an owner to construct a project. The owner hires an Architect and/or design team who produces a set of building documents. Those documents (plans & specs) are used to bid or negotiate with contractors to construct a project according to those documents. This method usually takes longer to accomplish and does not have the advantage of contractor knowledge or “value engineering” as it may apply to the owner’s project.
Value engineering is implemented during the design process to use the most advantageous equipment, materials and construction methods to benefit the owner. Construction budgets are constantly updated during the design process so the owner can make financial decisions during the design process, not after a set of documents are created using traditional (Plan and Spec) design methods.
