Dana, World HQ & Tech Center — North Addition

Program Solutions Group provided Pre-Design and Planning services, and served as Construction Manager for this project at Dana’s World Headquarters in 2015. The project consisted of a two-story addition totaling 43,000 sq. ft.

Included in the building addition was 30,000 sq. ft. of open office area containing 240 new employee workstations, 10 private offices, and associated ancillary spaces. During the planning phase, Dana identified a serious need for additional conference and meeting areas for use by all of the Dana employees in this facility. To satisfy this requirement 4,000 sq. ft. of the addition was designed for 25 state-of-the-art meeting rooms of all sizes, from intimate two-person ‘quiet-rooms’, to 4-8 person informal spaces, to larger more traditional conference room setups. This mix of rooms allows Dana employees to select the space that best suits their meeting.

The rest of the addition included a new 3,700 sq. ft. garage area to accommodate work on semi-trucks and three vehicle lifts, as well as much needed expansion space for the kitchen space that serves the employee cafeteria.
