SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT  

Leidos, a leading information technology, engineering, and science company, required a full building renovation of its Gaithersburg office. This multi-phased project included major alteration to 180,000 sf of the 300,000 sf building, consisting of a large 5000 sf data center with connections to a 1 mw and 900 kw generators for backup power. The design incorporates a new 660 ton module rooftop chiller system with new pump house.

Building improvements include full renovations to elevator lobbies, gymnasium renovation, and an addition of a new micro market with accompanied seating and featured occupiable stair platform.
Additionally, a full wing of the building was designed as a secure area suite of 25,000 sf including a data center, work labs, and general office area.

The remaining work areas were renovated into Class-A open office spaces to maximize occupancy and collaboration. The floor layouts include break areas, large conference rooms and small meeting rooms featuring frameless glass walls, accent finishes, and exposed ceiling design and accent ceiling specifications.

Future Phases: The next phase of the project will include a new building entry and lobby renovation, a large conference center with meeting rooms and conference spaces, as well as the remaining interior office renovations.
