Integrated Builders has completed the new corporate headquarters for Enterasys, a global networking and security solutions provider, at 9 Northeast Blvd. The company has moved from its former corporate headquarters at 50 Minuteman Dr. in Andover, Mass. to expand their operation, of 500 employees into Salem, in December, 2012. Integrated Builders began the renovations in May for the 190,000 s/f, $10.5 million interior fit-up designed by Maugel Architects of Harvard, Mass. Enterasys new headquarters includes 140,000 s/f of office space, and 30,000 s/f of electronic laboratory and warehouse. In addition, Integrated Builders also completed the contracted work of building owner Equity Industrial Partners to make upgrades to the main entrance of the building, entry points, and the new EIFS façade. Site improvements also included new parking adjacent to the building, landscaping and hardscape to the base building, a $3.4 million project. Equity Industrial Partners was also responsible for awarding the contract to Integrated Builders for the Enterasys project. Enterasys is the fourth new tenant in the 660,000 s/f building that Equity Industrial Partners has built. Integrated Builders has been the construction manager on all four projects. Coordination was a key factor very early in the project; just fewer than one hundred floor boxes had to be cut into the slab on grade for cubicles, AV, and conference room tables. The project team had to lock in the floor plan and cubical layout in the first weeks of the project, well before the owner had their vendors onboard. Jim Leiter, project superintendent, coordinated the owner's AV and furniture package with all other construction activities. This tight coordination resulted in zero misses, all of the cubicles and furniture aligned eight months later when the product was delivered. The interior construction was broken down into six quadrants of approximately 31,600 s/f each to be completed in a clock wise progression through the new Enterasys space. As the project entered the final two months they had final cleaning to the left of the main entry in quadrant one, while taping and sanding was completed in quadrant 6. Integrated Builders also created a new courtyard to bring natural light into the one time manufacturing building.
