Corteva Agriscience's Beaver Creek facility boasts state-of-the-art laboratories for 400 researchers, allowing Corteva to expand its cutting-edge plant genetics research and help farmers increase agricultural productivity. Open communication, clear expectations and a collaborative approach were essential to creating a facility that met Corteva’s need for a highly-specialized space on an expedited timeline.
Bringing architectural, structural, civil and MEP design-build partners together with Corteva design representatives and Ryan ownership, we made sure everyone was aligned so there would be no surprises later on. This understanding went beyond simple project planning; it created a shared vision that all parties could embrace and work toward. With two separate construction phases over a span of five years, the team needed to stay abreast of changing industry practices and procedures. Achieving the ideal outcome required constant communication and accurate financial updates to Corteva and clear expectations for subcontractors undertaking various aspects of the project.
The result is a beautiful facility that serves as a key investment in the Corteva global growth plan. Successful completion of the Beaver Creek facility was essential to accommodating the company’s rapidly growing business, and Ryan more than delivered.
