Award of Merit Interior/Tenant Improvement: BJ's Wholesale Club Headquarters
The five-floor, 190,000-sq-ft headquarters implements technology and modern amenities to enhance productivity. Visitors are greeted with a bright entryway and branded wall on the first floor, which also contains a test kitchen where staff members can work with clients, vendors and guests.
Upper levels support flexible work environments through open-plan layouts and spaces and also include collaboration areas located adjacent to the four-floor connecting stairway. The design includes detailed woodwork, millwork, fixtures and finishes and a robotics-equipped quality assurance lab. In the event of an emergency, three generators and the dedicated server room’s double-redundancy electrical infrastructure ensure continuous operations.
