A Case Study: The Nuts and Bolts of Construction Services

Selecting a single project that captures the full range of Construction Services’ capabilities is difficult. One project—the interstate relocation of a distribution center featuring 37,330 square feet of cooler panels over 15,000 square feet of floor space—stood out in both size and complexity.

THE CHALLENGE: Interstate Distribution Center Move

This customer had worked with us previously to construct a major distribution center at Location A. However, changes to their lease necessitated an interstate move to Location B. We were called in again to manage its dismantling, transportation, and reassembly.

Multiple elements, from materials acquisition and handling, transportation, and interstate logistics to licensure and compliance codes, in addition to the sheer size of the project, presented a unique challenge—one we were excited to meet!

THE RESULT: Centralized Solution for Project Peace-of-Mind

This facility move represented a significant investment for the customer, and potential delays or disruptions could have meant significant financial losses. Everidge’s Construction Services ensured efficient, timely completion of the project.

On-site support with experienced Everidge field technicians ensured the correct installation of each element, including panels, accessories and fixtures, refrigeration equipment, plumbing, and carpentry finishes.

This distribution center deconstruction and rebuild has been one of the department’s largest and most complex projects to date and represents a flagship success.
