HOW IT BENEFITS QUALCOMM

Compared to other design and construction companies, our disciplines operate as a national team instead of as independent studios: this means that even though you will have a dedicated Qualcomm team at Unispace for communications, we can resource our national team as needed to complete multiple simultaneous projects.

• You only have to tell us once

16 November ‘22

• Continuous improvement • Time and cost savings through learnings

?? Most other firms operate as independent studios with separate cost centers and intermittent communications. This means design intent, standards and communication preferences often need to be relearned each time a new studio gets involved.

uniBIM provides the cost and schedule impact of various design options, expediting the path through design and construction. A flexible and adaptive tool, uniBIM provides Qualcomm with information to make critical decisions, quickly and confidently, resulting in the right space for your needs, saving time and money. Multimedia views For your intuitive understanding, uniBIM integrates 3D photography, 3D laser scanning, phase planning, program validation, space and budget analytics, heat-mapping technology for structural analytics, design review, risk management, and conceptual design models we develop to support near real-time cost management.

Construction Through uniBIM, we identify innovative strategies to compress the project schedule, while keeping operations functioning efficiently. This includes progress reporting, logistics planning, schedule management, and quantity take-off, which together support cost and earned value management.

Video 02 Click to view VR tour of the proposed design

True digital integration unlocks a new way for our client, DoubleVerify, to experience space and achieve their goals With DoubleVerify’s ambitious culture and high-tech background, our uniBIM digital integration process was the perfect solution to dynamically tie together design and construction services.

The data was incorporated into the test-fit and design process where our team created near real-time flythroughs of the proposed design that were navigable in VR.

The process began with an interactive 3D photogrammetric scan of the space to capture field conditions. This gave our teams a constant point of reference and was so accurate that we detected a minor sag in the slab.

Approvals and changes were made in a dynamic setting, and manufacturer data and costs were applied to this model meaning changes were made including costs and lead times updated. Take off schedules and color-coded plans were quickly created for the delivery team using data and counts for furniture, fixtures and equipment that were already in the model.

Methodology

Qualcomm

Whole life approach

We help define and customize our clients’ environmental requirements, standards and vision with their buildings and the people who will occupy and operate them.

Cost assumptions and inadequate guidance, plus limited supporting evidence, can hinder achieving goals for sustainability and wellness. We support Qualcomm and its teams with the knowledge, expertise, and where necessary, leadership, to bring clarity to design, delivery, and operations for new or existing workplaces.

Work, invent, and connect Document yourname way

16 November 2022 October‘22 10 25

We consider a whole life approach ensuring that decisions made upstream don’t have unintended downstream impacts. We consider evidence-based and holistic views when evaluating strengths and opportunities and engage all life-cycle stakeholders to include priorities of current and future building users.

Sustainability is a team sport that benefits from an integrated approach and early engagement

Certification is evolving, but Qualcomm should also ensure it achieves the desired outcomes

Strategies must be proven and underpinned by data

Projects that look to prioritize sustainability need early access to specialist knowledge. Bringing all project stakeholders together for ‘visioning workshops’ promotes a more inclusive, diverse, and collaborative team, and provides an effective means to create a vision, set priorities, agree on roles and responsibilities and review outcomes.

Certification is a useful tool that provides a structured approach to credibly document strategies. Qualification often focuses on compliance and documenting processes/ actions, while relying on technology integration and/ or benchmarking, without prioritizing outcomes or effectiveness.

Only by measuring the performance of an existing workplace against the sustainability, health, and wellbeing it achieves can we measure the gaps and plot a path to improvement and success.

We facilitate sustainability, health, and wellbeing discussions, navigate the evidence base and help team members contribute to successful results.

We ensure that ‘impactful outcomes’ are not overlooked in favor of tick-box exercises, blending the best outcomes with certification, putting clients’ efforts where their objectives lie.

We help Qualcomm define, gather, and interpret effective baseline and postoccupancy data to quantify the benefits and demonstrate the value of workplace sustainability strategies.

Fitwel

Net Zero

LEED, founded and administered by the US Green Building Council (USGBC), is the most internationally recognized rating system, and also falls under the World Green Building Council umbrella. LEED ratings in four categories are weighted towards the US climate and building standards.

Founded and administered by the international WELL Building Institute, WELL is the world’s first holistic health centric rating system based on medical research. Globally recognized as the ‘Gold Standard’ in promoting healthy indoor environments, it is an evidence and performance based system verified by on site performance testing and witnessing by a certified assessor.

Developed by the International Living Future Institute, the Living Building Challenge (LBC) is an ever evolving program that goes beyond basic best practice, instead focusing on critical high-level goals. It is assumed that to achieve LBC, typical best practices are already being met and championed by your team. Additional consulting moves you towards additional green goals.

Created by the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and now operated by The Center for Active Design, Fitwel is an entry level health centric rating system. There are no mandatory requirements, which makes it easier to target initiatives that suit the project.

United Therapeutics’ new Net Zero building changed climate control, airflow, privacy, and general ways of working. Our change management helped staff learn about their site, understand their flexible options for open and focus space, and adapt to new ways of working successfully, positioning their workplace value in context of the greater community.

Progressive budgeting Ensuring value, control, and transparency

Throughout design, our pre-construction team prices your options progressively, enabling you to make informed decisions so the final aesthetic aligns to your budget, and you achieve value for money. We apply approval gates throughout our process that ensure controls align to Qualcomm’s expectations, and to provide assurance of competitive, fair, and market aligned costing.

New headquarters embodies an energetic brand and dog-friendly atmosphere

Description Having outgrown their disjointed, inherited space, Rover knew they needed to move and upgrade to align their company culture and values with their work environment. To create an atmosphere that connects their employees to each other, they partnered with us to design and build four additional floors in a new building and a “woofdeck”, with two additional expansion floors to accommodate future growth. We created a unique space for Rover that conveys their personality and passion, while showing their forward thinking-approach to the workplace, creating an inclusive environment that defines their brand and embraces the dog love in everyone.

Digital integration delivers a dynamic work environment

Description With DoubleVerify’s ambitious culture and high-tech background, we knew our uniBIM digital integration process was the perfect solution to dynamically tie together design and construction services. Our unique approach, fused a collection of planning and design technologies with cost databases to save DoubleVerify time, forecast risk, and increase quality. The process began with an interactive 3D photogrammetric scan of the site. This gave our teams a point of reference and was so accurate that we detected a few-inch sag in the slab, which we addressed immediately, saving a costly change order later on. This data was incorporated into the test-fit and design process where our team created real-time flythroughs of the proposed design that were navigable in virtual reality by the client. With the whole team at the table, approvals and changes were made, saving substantial time in the schedule, and creating real buy-in from leadership. Manufacturer data and costs were applied the model, allowing cost and lead times to auto update.

We are a global strategy, design, and construction leader creating experiential spaces for a rapidly-changing world. In 2010, Unispace revolutionized the workplace delivery model with an industry-leading, joined-up approach to strategy, design, and construction. After ten years as a privately owned business that experienced unparalleled growth internationally, our shareholders decided that private equity investment was the next step in our growth strategy. In March 2021, Unispace was acquired by leading private equity firm PAG.

Today, the business continues to meet the pace of change with an agile, end-to-end approach fit for ever-evolving global brands. With 5,500 workplace projects completed, Unispace creates workplaces powered by collaborative client partnerships, delivered seamlessly across borders, and enabled by industry-leading intelligence and technology.

We’ve never been a small local design firm; from the beginning we have brought global knowledge and local insights to every project.

About Unispace

DEIB: Creating spaces where everyone belongs

Qualcomm

The real workplaces of today… and tomorrow.

Spaces where everyone belongs.

Our designs help fully engage existing and future talent, plus build relationships with clients, customers, suppliers, and communities, by making all feel welcome and removing barriers to participation while equalizing access to amenities, social space, light, air circulation, etc.

The most powerful billboard companies have is their physical space and the experiences they create for their people. If you aren’t integrating Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) into your workplace strategy, you are opting out of engaging existing talent, accessing future talent, and building relationships with clients, customers, suppliers, and your communities alike. The environments you create affect your bottom line.
