INSPIRATION

Due to OMNIlife's immediate need to house employees, an existing building was redesigned to accommodate 20 offices, 46 cubicles, and robotic functions.
This project necessitated understanding the value of design on existing conditions and tailoring additions to present buildings.
With Boston-based roots extending back to 1928, MEC has never had a losing year based on the business practices of timeliness, fair price and quality execution. They sought an office design reflective of an accomplished heritage, modern innovation and open collaboration.
Sensata Technologies used Dacon's design-build service to complete their new building within 10 months and under budget.
Refrigeration was the critical issue needing prioritization at Gordon Food Service. To stay completely operational, Dacon built a new refrigeration space around the existing area without disturbing sales volume.
The resulting 348,000 SF Gordon Food Service facility entailed 2-story executive offices, a cooler dock, freezer, dry goods storage, 6 pump fuel station, and 45 loading docks. Completion time was only 4 months with $264,000 returned in savings.
Structural advantages included side plate steel columns to lighten on-site tonnage, variable refrigerant flow, and high-efficiency HVAC systems to lessen environmental impact while allowing for infinite variability in temperature control.
St. George desired a 40,000 SF addition to keep their ice hockey curriculum in top form amidst other competitive New England private schools.
Dacon was subsequently asked to return and renovate 3 additional floors. Estimated close to cost, $7,000 was returned to the client. Formerly vacant for 5 years, this building became fully leased with Dacon designing the retail block.
Located in an office building north of Boston, Gentle Giant sought to maximize a new layout for operations, a call center, and executive offices until a second phase expansion.
Given the immediate need for the company to relocate, an extension was designed enabling ancillary warehouse, labs, training and quality assurance spaces without impeding business while meeting the deadline.
For 120 years, Gordon has kept restaurants and foodservice organizations in good taste, supplying culinary products and operations expertise.
