Marian, Inc.
Office / Lab | Pre-engineered Building | 2026 ABC Award Nominee
Project
Overview
This project consists of a 60,775 square foot manufacturing facility addition constructed to expand operational capacity and provide supplemental storage to support ongoing production demands. The addition is designed with a 32-foot low eave height, allowing for efficient manufacturing workflows, improved material handling, and optimized vertical storage. The new structure is seamlessly integrated with the existing facility to maintain operational continuity while enabling future growth.
A key component of the design is the intentional flexibility of the space. The building is configured to allow approximately half of the addition to be partitioned for potential lease to a third-party tenant. This configuration includes a secure, shared dock area that accommodates both the primary occupant and a future tenant while maintaining controlled access and operational separation. This approach provides long-term adaptability and an opportunity for revenue generation without compromising core manufacturing operations.
The addition includes new employee and operational support spaces, such as restrooms, a break room, and a conference room, enhancing functionality and employee comfort. A dedicated shipping office is incorporated to support logistics coordination and outbound operations. The facility is equipped with four loading docks to efficiently handle truck traffic, as well as one on-grade overhead door to accommodate oversized deliveries and flexible material movement.
Overall, the project significantly enhances manufacturing capacity, improves logistical efficiency, and provides a versatile facility layout designed to support both current operational needs and future business opportunities.

In Action
The project required flexibility because construction began before every interior layout decision was finalized. To protect the schedule, we advanced the shell, coordinated critical path items, and preserved options for interior build-out while design decisions continued. This approach allowed the owner to respond to changing operational needs without losing momentum in the field. Quality control depended on consistent coordination between the building addition, the existing facility, the new connector building, dock operations, and future tenant separation requirements.
