Description

Stryker European Supply Chain Services operates its Distribution Center in Venlo. Stryker is a fast growing medical device company, based in the USA.

Opportunities

Stryker has outgrown the facility that was constructed in 2010 and assigned Groenewout to manage the design & realization of a 10.000 m² of warehouse expansion.

In parallel Groenewout designed an advanced automated goods-to-person system to be fitted in the new warehouse.

Solution

Groenewout managed the various phases/aspects of the project

• Architectural & technical design
• BREEAM certification
• Building permit
• Tendering & contracting main parties
• Realization
• Hand-over & commissioning

Some technical specifications are different from regular warehouses, e.g. dock doors, waste area and HVAC systems.

Benefits

• Stryker preferred to have one party be accountable for the whole project, to ensure an integrated design and efficient project communication
• The project was completed in time and within budget.
