Having the correct amount of space to achieve operational excellence is vital to your success.
Whether your organization is expanding through mergers and acquisitions or through organic growth, our detailed process defines optimum solutions that align with your goals, budget, and marketplace.
With a history spanning 114 years and a team of experienced architects and former bankers at the helm, we have a deep understanding of the requirements for evaluating and creating Operations and Main Office spaces that meet growth and organizational needs for financial institutions of all sizes.
Whether you are looking to build new, renovate, or add on to your existing structure, PWCampbell digs deep to understand your specific needs and strategic goals.
Our process—the Complete Facility Solution™ outlines the Part 1 and Part 2 steps we follow to ensure a successful outcome for your project.
DBIA Part 1: In the first three steps of this process, our in-house team of preconstruction, land development and design experts creates a snapshot of your facility, inside and out. Initial drawings and elevations, an estimated schedule of costs, and an approximate timeline for construction provide the answers you need to make the best decisions and minimize risk before proceeding with construction.
DBIA Part 2: Through this second half of the process, our in-house Architects and Project Managers finalize drawings and budgets. Bids are solicited from qualified, local subcontractors, ensuring that construction activities for your building remain in your community. In Part 2 we also finalize plans for branding, technology, interior design, equipment, and furniture, leaving no stone unturned before construction begins.

PART 1 DELIVERABLES
Are you running out of space to accommodate new hires?
Are you expanding or acquiring in the near future?
Has your space become inefficient or restrictive?
Have you added onto existing space multiple times?
Are you having trouble attracting and retaining employees?
How is existing space affecting employees working remotely?
When it comes to operations centers and main offices, the first step in our Part 1 process is to break down your spatial needs.
We collaborate with you to analyze space requirements in detail, taking into consideration adjacencies between departments and job functions.
These findings will allow us to provide projections over 2, 5, and 7 years to ensure cohesive functionality—now and into the future— guaranteeing your space is being used to its maximum potential and you won’t run out of room in a few years.
Our Complete Facility Solution™ defines exactly what to expect when you partner with PWCampbell. From site plans to floor plans and elevations, the accuracy we consistently achieve from drawings to construction completion is a true testament to the efficacy of our process.
• Renovate existing space?
Once the square footage is determined, most financial institutions face crucial decisions:
• Add on and renovate existing space?
• Demo and build new on our existing site?
• Build new somewhere else?
Option 1 consists of a partial renovation and partial tear down at the existing location. Based on initial walk through of the existing space, it would be nearly impossible to make the existing buildings work as currently constructed. The variation in floor to floor heights of buildings, bearing walls, limited ceiling heights and some structural concern make renovation of most of the existing buildings nearly impractical. Renovation of the existing buildings would not create better working environments, would not allow for office adjacency efficiency and would only result in a cosmetic change of the current layout. Our recommendation would be, at minimum, to tear down the middle third of the building, but most likely to tear down the left two-thirds, keeping only the existing branch and corner building. New building space would then be created on the remaining area where all buildings will be demolished. The space can be built to hold your 10 year plan plus additional expansion if needed.
Option 2 consists of purchasing the existing building of sample area. Based on a general walk through of this building, it is our opinion that this is a very good structure. While a detailed building review was not performed, the general walk through showed what appeared to be a structurally sound and well maintained building. Because of the structure of this building, it allows for very nice open floor plan space to begin essentially with a clean slate. We would propose to gut the existing space except for the general core components. This building will provide you with 7 floors and approximately 70,000 total sq.ft, of which a portion could be used to rent out to tenants.
