PROJECT EXAMPLES

Designing the Future of Manufacturing: Where Innovation Meets the Workforce Environment

Innovation Centers

The future of advanced manufacturing depends on seamless integration — where research, workforce training, and production coexist in dynamic, purpose-built environments. Our work in designing innovation centers creates spaces that connect talent pipelines, accelerate technology transfer, and support end-toend product development.

These centers are more than buildings — they are ecosystems. Our firm partners with public and private stakeholders to design facilities that align with regional economic strategies and industry needs. From cleanrooms and high-bay labs to workforce training classrooms and advanced manufacturing floors, we create environments that drive both discovery and deployment.

Aerospace Innovative Center Campus plan and concept development for the City of Kent.

The campus was developed with the diverse youth and adult populations of South King County in mind as a space to explore science, engineering, technologies, arts, and math.

The City located this project on city-owned lands strategically placed at the “fiftyyard line” of the Kent Valley and within the walkable grid of its historic downtown.

A partnership with Avenue 55 was formed to bring this project to fruition.

The project supports a modern way of engaging with students outside of the traditional classroom, and providing exposure to the worlds of innovation, imagination, and collaboration that lie ahead in advanced careers in the region, with a focus on the intersection of digital and traditional hardware skills that are remaking career pathways.

Mackenzie was tasked with designing the site into a new mass timber innovation campus including manufacturing and R+D space, University of Oregon Research Lab, business incubator and public spaces.

The facility will build mass timber panels for modular homes, which will be barged and trucked from Terminal 2 to communities in need around Oregon.

The campus will also serve as a small business incubator, inclusive of women and diverse communities, and as a location for workforce training.

Project Kansas New $4 billion electric vehicle battery plant.

The facility, the largest economic development in Kansas’s history, is expected to support 4,000 permanent employees and bring in $2.5 billion in yearly economic activity.

The plant has a U-shaped footprint sited around support and utility facilities and will be constructed in phases due to its complexity and size.

The current focus of design is on the production facility, as well as designing spaces for staff in alignment with Panasonic’s employee-centric culture.

Twelve The first CO2-based eJet propulsion fuel manufacturing plant.

This existing industrial site was home to a sugar beet processing facility. This was demolished to provide a brownfield site for this 21st century operation. The key to this location was its abundance of power immediately available.

Twelve will operate a demonstration plant to show their proprietary technology that uses electricity to split water and CO2. This process produces hydrogen and carbon monoxide. These are combined to produce “syngas” — synthetic hydrocarbon gas they then process into sustainable aviation fuel.

Confidential Client—Clean Room and Facilities Upgrade A semiconductor facility retooled for the future.

The Mackenzie team, in collaboration with Corbin Consulting Engineers, provided design, engineering, and construction support for the complete renovation and modernization of a facility to manufacture silicon carbide automotive computer chips.

The project included extensive modifications to the 300,000 SF fab cleanroom and subfab building. The arrangement of the fab was updated to suit a new tool layout, and system upgrades included capacity increases to makeup air and exhaust systems, the mechanical and process utility distribution “backbone,” spec and bulk gases, chemical and drain distribution systems, and the electrical distribution system. Additionally, the facility’s data center was upgraded to meet client standards, with a second data center and backup data center created in an adjacent building.

Confidential Advanced Technology Client Summary programming, lab layout, and tool movement for a new facility.

Mackenzie recently provided design services to facilitate the sale of a production division to this confidential client.

Our team worked closely with project stakeholders to review existing lab conditions and develop a condensed and highly efficient layout of tools and systems that were moved from existing labs across the seller’s campus to this new facility. The team focused on utility conveyance optimization to minimize cost and project impacts, working closely with the general contractor for real time cost and schedule analysis.

Mackenzie analyzed and oversaw the Tool Utility Matrix (TUM) as the primary driver of the facility. Our team articulated the impacted area summaries, while developing a working tool planning solution to the required lab areas. Through our team’s development with lab owners and mechanical/electrical teams, the planning and tool layouts resulted in optimized grouping to facilitate both functionality and utility efficiency.
