Centers for Disease Control, Building 103 Pharmaceutical / R&D Lab
Life Sciences

The Life Sciences design group focuses primarily on the design of facilities in the animal and human health industries. These types of facilities include pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities, R&D/QA labs, and manufacturing pilot plants. Design for these facility types often represents significant challenges - advances in technology, more stringent regulatory requirements, and an increasingly competitive business environment are a few of the forces impacting the life sciences industry. Our response to these challenges? It's critical that we design with flexibility in order to adjust to the rapidly-changing nature of the life sciences industry.

Our team consists of an integrated group of architects and engineers dedicated to delivering design solutions for the life sciences industry. We support our architecture and MEP engineering services with in-house structural engineering, civil/site engineering, fire protection engineering, and commissioning specialists. Additionally, GBA Builders provides construction management support services.
