- Industry: Steel Fabrication
- Completion: On Schedule and On Budget
Orion Construction successfully developed a build-to-suit (BTS) facility for Advanced Material Handling, tailored to their operational needs. AMH’s vision focused on creating a high-performance fabrication facility. Orion collaborated closely with AMH to refine this vision through workshops, site visits, and workflow analysis, translating the company’s requirements into an efficient, purpose-built facility.
Key design elements included high ceilings for racking, optimized loading docks, and specialized fabrication zones. Orion overcame challenges such as balancing large open spaces with structural integrity, site space constraints, and subtrade shortages by leveraging strong relationships and advanced project planning.
Innovative construction techniques like modular building and the use of sustainable materials enhanced both the efficiency and sustainability of the project. Orion’s collaborative approach with subcontractors, suppliers, and city planners ensured smooth execution and regulatory compliance. The project was completed on time and within budget, exceeding AMH’s expectations and earning high client satisfaction for its functionality and design.
The new facility enabled AMH to achieve immediate scalability, resulting in a 120% revenue increase and substantial financial growth.
High ceilings and optimized loading docks were designed to improve AMH’s production flow and efficiency.
Orion addressed space constraints and subcontractor shortages through proactive planning and strong partnerships with subcontractors.
Modular construction and the use of sustainable materials improved build efficiency and reduced the facility’s environmental footprint.
