Office, Retail & Warehouse

Pet Parents engaged Keen as a Design/Build partner to design and construct a new Pet Parents Headquarters. The facility includes 22,306 square feet of warehouse, 18,443 square feet office space, and 4,353 square feet of retail space.

The warehouse was constructed of architectural precast with a high bay storage along with a storage mezzanine designed for hand picking orders. The office space consists of two stories, the 1st level is finished, and the 2nd level is core and shell finish for future expansion. The office exterior façade consisted of large format storefront windows, EIFS, Nichiha, and ACM eyebrow canopies. The office interior was designed with a walkout patio and fenced in dog park. The retail component of the build was originally designed to be a core and shell space, but grew via Keen and owner collaboration, coordinating between a 3D concept and construction drawings.

All subcontractors are required to prequalify to be considered for the project. Prequalification’s include project history/experience, EMR of below 1 and COI for the specific project.

Keen utilizes Sage 300 and Procore for cost management. Status reports are given to the ownership group at minimum on a monthly basis. A copy of all ULW’s are required by the lender for this specific project in order to endorse the pay applications.

Keen directs traffic via closing certain entrances. Branding is also displayed alerting the public to who the GC is for the project. Safety entrance signage isdisplayed notifying all parties of the requirements if they are to be onsite. This includes PPE requirements by Keen and OSHA.
