ATLANTA, July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ARCO Design/Build, the nation's leading design-build construction firm, today announced the formal launch of its Capital Projects division, a specialized team dedicated to enhancing and modernizing existing facilities. The division formalizes ARCO's long-standing expertise in industrial and commercial renovations, retrofits, and tenant improvements to better serve clients throughout their facilities' lifecycle.
ARCO Design/Build modernizes manufacturing facilities with automated production lines and quality control systems that keep operations running during construction.
The company's Capital Projects division upgrades existing manufacturing floors with new equipment and infrastructure while facilities remain operational.
ARCO renovates warehouse and distribution centers, installing conveyor systems and optimizing layouts to boost efficiency in existing buildings.
The firm has completed over 2,900 facility improvement projects nationwide, specializing in warehouse expansions and storage system upgrades.
The Capital Projects division addresses a significant market need for specialized design-build services focused on existing industrial and commercial spaces. From warehouse renovations and manufacturing facility upgrades to cold storage retrofits and office build-outs, the division provides turnkey solutions that optimize operational efficiency while minimizing disruption to both active environments and vacant buildings. ARCO collaborates with clients during the early planning stages to understand their business, optimize their facility, and provide guaranteed costs before they spend a dime.
"Clients increasingly seek partners who can help them maximize their existing facilities rather than always building new," said Rob Steigerwald, CEO of ARCO Design/Build. "By formalizing our Capital Projects division, we're acknowledging what our clients have known for years – that ARCO's design-build expertise extends beyond ground-up construction to include the specialized skills needed for complex renovations and retrofits. This strategic move strengthens our position as an indispensable, long-term partner throughout the facility lifecycle."
The division builds on ARCO's track record of successfully completing more than 2,900 capital projects nationwide, representing over $670 million in annual construction value. With expertise spanning warehouse and distribution, manufacturing, cold storage, controlled environments, and workplace environments – including offices, breakrooms, wellness spaces, and collaborative areas – the team delivers solutions ranging from minor renovations to comprehensive facility modernizations.
"Our integrated design-build approach ensures seamless project delivery with a single team responsible for the entire project. This commitment to excellence has established ARCO as the trusted partner that clients consistently choose for their subsequent projects," said Eric Safko, CEO of ARCO Design/Build Houston and Salt Lake City.
