DPR performed tenant improvements on a 230,000-sq.-ft. office buildout, plus an additional 320,000-sq.-ft. of interior R&D space. The new R&D spaces include complex chemistry and biology labs, a small cGMP clean room, and over 200 fume hoods. Other scopes include a ground-up central utility plant and associated underground chilled water piping to serve all four buildings on campus, as well as a 2MW emergency generator.

Project Details

Technical design-assist MEP scopes, full BIM coordination, and navigating a complex lease agreement between landlord and tenant: all required an integrated build with the DPR core and shell team to deliver on a fast-track schedule. DPR went beyond reviewing the project Responsibility Matrix to document all changes in the drawings, aligning our detailed estimate with the correct cost buckets. The team meticulously communicated items in the TI plans (for which the shell/landlord was responsible) to address concerns about allocating costs to the correct funding source. DPR's extra due diligence to fix disparities prevented conflicts between landlord and tenant as the project progressed.
