Prescient Co. Expands Manufacturing Capabilities to Supplement Colorado Plant and Better Serve East Coast Markets
Prescient, a fully integrated and patented design, engineering, manufacturing and installation solution for the construction industry, is moving the company’s headquarters from Arvada, Colorado to Durham, North Carolina, and opening a second manufacturing facility in nearby Mebane NC.
The NC facility will serve clients east of the Mississippi River, while the Colorado facility will continue to serve clients in the western United States. The company hosted a grand opening for the new Mebane facility on July 12, 2017.
Prescient’s Mebane plant began production in May and expects to eventually employ more than 200 designers, architects, project managers, installers, and other employees.
The headquarters move marks an important milestone for the company, signaling Prescient’s commitment to future investment and growth throughout the US This also allows Prescient to bring design, manufacturing and other business operations to the North Carolina Commerce Park, a 1,200-acre business property developed collaboratively by Alamance County with the towns of Graham and Mebane.
“We are witnessing significant growth, having doubled our revenue each year since 2013. Relocating our headquarters will allow us to expand our national footprint and better accommodate customers along the East Coast, from Maine to Miami,” said Satyen Patel, chairman and former CEO of Prescient. “While our expanded 120,000-square-foot facility in Colorado will continue to serve customers west of the Mississippi River, we believe that North Carolina, with its commitment to growing a knowledge-based, innovation-driven economy, is a perfect fit with Prescient’s mission.”
The company provides the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry with a seamless process tied together with a digital thread from design to the finished product. Prescient’s innovative design platform offers a faster, greener and more cost-effective alternative than conventional building structures and is ideally suited for multi-unit mid-rise projects, including apartments, student housing, hotels, and senior living. Projects completed or underway span the country: Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Texas.
“I am proud to welcome Prescient to North Carolina. Prescient joins a growing list of innovative companies attracted to our state’s exceptional talent and business climate,” said North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper. “North Carolina is a thriving place to live and do business thanks to our skilled workforce, outstanding universities and community colleges, and strong leadership in technology and manufacturing.”
The first project coming out of the new Alamance County facility will be a Northgate, a student housing facility in College Station, Texas. The 177,267 square-foot dormitory will consist of eight total levels, five of Prescient structure.
