1. The project seeks to optimize space utilization by minimizing dedicated areas while offering adaptable educational environments, all with a strong emphasis on sustainability. The building must be designed within established budgetary parameters, balancing innovation with programmatic construction considerations to ensure readiness for occupancy by May 1, 2028. The University aims to deliver a technology-forward facility through a strategic partnership with Cisco Systems and its ecosystem partners, incorporating advanced smart building technologies and data-driven solutions. The selected civil engineering firm will be expected to work collaboratively with Pure Project Management, the Rowan Design and Construction Team, the selected A/E team, all end users, as well as working with our technology partners Cisco Systems and Siemens Industry Inc.—to ensure the project's success. This facility will serve as a model for integrating technology and innovation throughout the University, with a design that is scalable and adaptable for future campus developments.
