FMC

BUILDING ON A DECADE-LONG RELATIONSHIP, GENSLER WORKED WITH THIS TOP-TEN OIL FIELD SERVICES CLIENT TO ANALYZE REAL ESTATE OPTIONS AND CONSOLIDATE SEVERAL LOCATIONS ON ONE SITE. INTEGRATING FMC'S CAMPUS AS AN ANCHOR IN A NEW MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT CREATES A DYNAMIC LIVE, WORK, PLAY, AND LEARN COMBINATION. WHILE THE NEW GREENFIELD DEVELOPMENT REPRESENTED BOUNDLESS OPPORTUNITIES, THE AIM WAS TO DESIGN THE SAFEST, MOST OPERATIONALLY EFFICIENT SITE POSSIBLE, ALL WHILE INCORPORATING STATE-OF-THE-ART EMPLOYEE AMENITIES.

THE IMPROVED FUNCTIONALITY OF THE CAMPUS PAVES THE WAY FOR FMC'S NEW STANDARD OF PERFORMANCE. THE PROJECT UNDERTAKING ALSO SERVES AS A TESTAMENT TO GENSLER'S PROJECT MANAGEMENT EXPERTISE: THIS EFFORT COMBINED COORDINATION OF A MULTI-PHASE BUILD-OUT WITH OVERSIGHT OF MORE THAN A DOZEN CONSULTANTS AND CONSTRUCTION OF 26 PURPOSE-BUILT STRUCTURES, EACH WITH A SPECIFIC FUNCTION. THE CAMPUS IS TRULY A PROJECT OF NOTE DUE TO ITS 173-ACRE SIZE AND COMPLEXITY, AND IT READILY SHOWCASES GENSLER'S ABILITY TO COORDINATE VARIED PROGRAM ELEMENTS ON A LARGE SCALE.

RESULTS

· DECREASED TIMELINE DUE TO JUST-IN-TIME CONTRACTOR PRICING AND CLIENT APPROVALS FOR SCHEMATIC DESIGN AND DESIGN DEVELOPMENT DRAWING PACKAGES

· IMPLEMENTING COBIE STANDARDS TO ALLOW INTEGRATION OF OUR BIM PROGRAM WITH THE CLIENT FACILITIES MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE

· DESIGN TEAM COLLABORATED WITH CLIENT’S PROCESS ENGINEERS TO DESIGN A CAMPUS THAT ALLOWS FOR A MORE EFFICIENT AND SAFER WORK ENVIRONMENT. ONE EXAMPLE OF THIS IS THE ORGANIZATION OF OFFICES AROUND THE PEDESTRIAN-FRIENDLY ZONE THAT SEPARATES VEHICULAR AND MANUFACTURING TRAFFIC
