Senate Construction design/builds 40,600 s/f addition for Integra Cos. at Devens

Shirley, MA Senate Construction Corp. has completed the design/build of a 40,600 s/f addition for Integra Companies in Devens. The company remained operational and occupied the existing building throughout construction, making safety and efficiency paramount on this project.

In 2001, Senate built Integra’s existing 30,000 s/f corporate headquarters. Years later, Integra began to outgrow that facility and turned to Senate again to expand its building to accommodate for growth. The 40,600 s/f addition includes 20,600 s/f of office space and 20,000 s/f of warehouse. Both spaces are Butler buildings but this project is unique in that the warehouse was pre-engineered and the office space was built conventionally. Senate’s team worked in preconstruction to ensure the two structures would integrate seamlessly.

“The majority of our business comes from repeat clients. We value building and strengthening client relationships over the course of multiple projects, so we were delighted when Integra invited us back to perform this important addition,” said Senate project manager & director of special projects, Jon Karp. “This was a challenging project, making our prior knowledge of both Integra’s staff and the existing building critical for success.”
