Vivodyne, one of University of Pennsylvania’s Bioengineering startups, has quickly outgrown their space at Pennovation. Their success has prompted them to expand into a new research lab and split in the Curtis Center. The new space includes private offices, collaborative open office space and conference rooms, tissue culture labs, and assembly labs with a CNC machine. As the owner’s representative, PurePM is focused on controlling the scope and budget of the project for the growing startup. Utilizing a Target Value Design approach, PurePM has led the project team through a value engineering process to ensure the project falls within the owner’s budget. PurePM is managing all aspects of the expansion, from preparing budgets and schedules, managing scope and design, overseeing construction, managing owner FF&E selection, and move-in and occupancy activities. PurePM will also work closely with the management team at The Curtis Center to ensure existing operations for the building are not disturbed as the construction work is ongoing.
When MilliporeSigma embarked on their new $286M Drug Safety Testing Facility, they sought PurePM to help manage the project. The facility reflects the growing demand for biosafety testing.
Integral Molecular is one of the founding members of Philadelphia’s biotech community, with over 20 years of experience in the industry.
Invisible Sentinel, a BioMérieux company, expanded their facility into a new home within the Philadelphia Navy Yard.
As part of their continued expansion in 2017 Hackensack Meridian acquired a portion of the Old Roche Pharmaceuticals site on Nutley New Jersey. The site was well suited for their goals of expanding research and growing.
