Project
A case study in precision and phased renovation in an active airport logistics hub
As Kuehne+Nagel’s owner’s representative, REMS led a two-phase renovation of the logistics company’s Airgate 1 and Airgate 2 buildings near JFK Airport while the facility remained safely operational. We phased the work around neighboring tenants and occupied areas, managing the renovation of an 80,000 SF warehouse, a 20,000 SF addition, and new loading dock and warehouse modifications. We led preconstruction and procurement strategy, tracked long-lead items, ran subcontractor bidding, and reviewed contractor fees and general conditions. In a congested airport setting, we oversaw site safety, temporary protection, and two-week look-ahead schedules, and the project finished on time and on budget.
