Erland Construction, Inc was recently awarded a complete gut and build out of a 2-story, 70,000 s/f building for Covidien in the Crosby Corporate Center. Teaming with Maugel Architects, Erland will complete the project this winter. This is the second time that Erland has managed a construction project for Covidien. The first - completed in 2008 - was a major renovation and expansion for their corporate headquarters in Mansfield.
For the Bedford project, Erland will transform the first floor of the building into office space for the sales, marketing, and human resources departments. The second floor will become manufacturing and R&D with several different types of laboratories, clean rooms, and a clean/dry room. The project will apply for a Construction Interiors (CI) LEED certification.
Erland's project executive for this project, Tom Blesso, said, "It's always rewarding to win a project for an owner that we've worked with before. It means we did a good job previously and the owner trusts us to perform well again. We're excited to work with Covidien on this project in Bedford and continue to build our relationship with them."
