Commercial Buildings

AC Corporation offers multiple services for new and existing commercial buildings. All commercial building projects blend our unique and experienced skills and resources to provide a solution tailored for each customer. Below is a list of the proven methodologies used by AC Corporation for many years and many successful projects:

Project Fundamental Definition

All built solutions have four basic fundamentals that must be addressed: Function, Form, Economy, and Time. Our staff is trained in assisting clients in defining functional needs, requirements, and relationships for a project. Based on functional criteria we help identify normative, risk, indoor environmental quality, environmental impact, and constructability form elements. Our focus on economy considers the full breadth of ownership costs from start-to-finish. We offer time solutions that include conventional, fast-track, phased, and integrated project delivery.

Owner Project Requirement (OPR)

Development For Integrated Building Design to be successful, project fundamentals must be translated into verifiable goals, or Owner Project Requirements. Our staff is prepared to develop specific, objective, and quantifiable goals that can be used as benchmarks to measure project success.

Strategy Development

AC Corporation has extensive systems expertise and a comprehensive understanding of building dynamics. This institutional knowledge affords us the ability to formulate unique strategies to explore in pursuit of optimal solutions. Integrated Building Design excels when building interdependencies are truly evaluated with a "tunnel through the cost barrier" mindset.

Multiple Criteria Evaluation

In order to determine what constitutes "best" for a specific project, importance and weighting criteria should be applied to all project fundamentals. Our staff is skilled at creating comparison scales and importance weighting systems to judge the outcome of strategy comparisons.

High Performance Buildings-Integrated Building Design
