City of Minneapolis

Government

Overview:

IAG Commercial equipped the City of Minneapolis with the information needed to decide between new construction or remodeling of several existing facilities.

Goals:

The City of Minneapolis needed help defining and planning their fragmented facilities situation. They needed to map out a plan and act on the agreed upon direction. The city desired to consolidate employees and provide more efficient public access in a environment that best met their future space needs.

Challenges:

The City of Minneapolis occupied several fragmented buildings that did not ideally house employees and provide public access to the necessary service needs. The city needed a plan on what to do next that included the cost to renovate existing buildings or construct a new building that consolidated services. To complete the exercise a gap analysis of existing space vs. future space needs needed to be completed and IAG was able to help define this need.

Solutions:

We provided the City of Minneapolis with the necessary financial models to compare their current space utilization with their projected space needs over five years. The models included a cost comparison of remodeling existing buildings vs. construction of a new government services center. Through the gap analysis and the financial modeling, the city received the information needed to formulate a plan and map out a direction that worked for them to achieve their goals. 

Ultimately a decision was made to build a new government services center in close proximity to the existing Minneapolis City Hall. The new facility will consolidate employees and provide much improved service access to the public.  A new government services center was constructed next to the Minneapolis City Hall.  This beautiful facility consolidated employees and provided much improved service access for the public.
