Great Lakes Cold Storage

SERVICES: Owner’s Rep and Construction Management

LOCATION: Solon, OH

YEAR COMPLETED: 2018

BUILDING SIZE: 57,300 Sq. Ft.

REQUIREMENTS:

  • Designed to support future growth, Great Lakes Cold Storage sought a trusted partner to act as the Owner’s Representative for its 57,300 SF cold storage expansion.

OBJECTIVES / CHALLENGES:

  • Great Lakes was looking to add a state-of-the-art freezer/cooler on its existing 247,000 SF facility. Premier was tasked to manage the project in a way that prevented disruption to Great Lakes’ ongoing operations and ensured senior leadership was not overburdened by day-to-day project details.

RESULTS:

  • Premier worked closely with the architect and subcontractors to thoroughly review design plans and budgets. This collaboration minimized delays, cost overruns, and disruption to day-to-day operations, and also allowed senior leadership to be kept well-informed without being overwhelmed by the project. Premier saved Great Lakes 200% of Premier’s Owner’s Representative fee.
