An office is more than just a building or a workplace. It’s an environment that surrounds and influences people, one that keeps must keep them safe and healthy while they work, live, and play. This philosophy guides DPR’s office construction teams, be it on large corporate campuses, urban high-rises, suburban core-and-shell projects, build-to-suits, or interior fit-outs.
DPR knows that the “new office” workplace of tomorrow goes beyond the basics. We use our extensive experience in building some of the industry’s most cutting-edge projects to inform owners of potential for improvements and efficiencies throughout the entire project lifecycle. We look at each job through the eyes of the customer and understand the complexity and competitive nature of office development.

Understanding
the End-User
Our corporate clients always want to recruit the best talent and must be able to provide state-of-the-art technology, security and amenities. All these things must rival their competitors in today’s competitive environment.
Developers face the same challenge: finding ways to meet the needs of prospective tenants while keeping their projects competitive in the market. At DPR, we help our clients navigate these decisions and integrate them with the project’s overall success factors.

Market
Advantage
No two markets are alike, with varying drivers for each local economy. DPR knows that can drastically change the needs of a job. We analyze each phase of the project and establish scheduling milestones aligned to the owner's needs. We also study tenants in the market to better understand what will set the building apart from its competition. Our teams are well-versed in the latest trends in WELL and LEED, building automation, agile workplaces, and resilient design to find the right fit for your local climate and culture.
In addition, DPR brings the unique ability to self-perform many scopes of work including concrete structure, framing and drywall, doors and hardware, and specialties to ensure more predictable outcomes. Combined with prefabrication and virtual design and construction, DPR gives clients an edge when it comes to efficiency.

the Future
Even before the pandemic, offices were prioritizing health and safety of occupants and the flexibility to adapt. Now, the need to avoid disruptions is greater than ever. Through design and construction approaches, businesses can plan for resiliency against pandemics and other potentialities that could disrupt business for weeks or months at a time. DPR’s special services group is uniquely suited to help make small renovations to make spaces more adaptable.
