As you embark on your next industrial project, our multidisciplinary team will accelerate your progress by strategically combining front-end services to explore every possibility. Whether replicating an existing facility or turning a broad business need into an actionable plan, we’ll define the strategy and identify solutions tailored to your goals.
By engaging your key stakeholders early, we facilitate design criteria discovery and validation, ensuring alignment on a shared project vision. Our consultative approach continues as we define the project scope, schedule, budget, and potential risks, leading to a smoother design process and a construction phase with fewer change orders and reduced risk of cost overruns.

Feasibility Studies
From assessing the physical site to conducting an initial cost analysis, we help determine project viability from a technical, financial, and logistical perspective.
We think about projects wholistically to develop realistic sequential multi-year plans that ensure a capital project is tightly aligned with your financial strategy.
Master Planning and Campus Planning
By evaluating business growth projections up front, we can plan the site, building, and surrounding infrastructure to support your short-term project needs and long-term vision for future expansion.
Existing Facility Evaluations/Surveying Existing Conditions
With decades of experience working on industrial projects, our team is well qualified to comprehensively evaluate options for performing expansion and upgrade projects at existing facilities.
From analyzing space constraints to utility loads to a building’s structural capacity, our team will develop a comprehensive understanding of your facility to identify all the possibilities and potential challenges for a executing a project upfront.
Space Programming, Conceptual Design, and Design Criteria Development
Through the conceptual design phase, we rapidly explore design schemes to establish building orientation, operational circulation, programmatic spatial relationships, and preliminary design criteria requirements.
During front-end design criteria development, we define the specific technical, functional, and regulatory requirements for a design.
Front-End Loading (FEL)/Front End Engineering and Design (FEED)
Our FEL services confirm key objectives, risks, and requirements are well defined before significant investments are made in design and construction.
We further refine a design through FEED to ensure it will meet technical requirements, regulatory standards, and budget goals.
Value Engineering
By providing alternative design solutions which optimize costs, we can help meet the project budget while maintaining quality and functionality.
Our plans are never rigid – instead we continually evaluate our plans and progress throughout a project, iterating on designs as necessary.
