PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Vision Construction engaged with Iron Mountain on the Rockwell complex when new operational procedures required a fully functional loading dock for inbound and outbound materials; the existing Rockford facility lacked this capability. Vision Construction worked with the design team to plan and build a dock addition to the existing facility. This addition, featuring a three-position loading dock and a new trash compactor, was constructed in front of existing doors that needed to remain operational for various daily functions. As a result, Vision needed to strategically plan and construct this project while keeping the facility fully functional with zero interruptions to daily operations. We were able to satisfy this request by constructing and utilizing a temporary dock during construction. In the end, the updated and fully capable Rockwell facility is now able to simultaneously manage the loading and unloading of multiple inbound and outbound semi-tractor trailers and meet the demands of Iron Mountain’s needs.
