FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Technical expertise and proven university experience key to selection
Richmond, VA, December 1, 2009 – AdvanceTEC, a leader in cleanroom design and construction, today announced that it has been selected for cleanroom construction at the University of Waterloo’s Mike and Ophelia Lazaridis Quantum-Nano Centre (QNC). The QNC cleanroom, slated for construction in the summer of 2010, will house state of the art fabrication facilities for quantum and nano device materials and process research.
“AdvanceTEC is honored to be working with the University of Waterloo and Aecon Construction on this groundbreaking new facility,” noted Bryan Phelan, AdvanceTEC managing partner and director of sales, marketing and preconstruction services. “We realize that performing cleanroom construction on university campuses requires more than just understanding the technologies involved. It requires a unique approach, working as a part of a team with faculty, research partners, A/E firms such as KMPB, construction managers and general contractors. We know how to operate safely on an active campus, and understand what it takes to deliver successful university cleanroom projects for our clients.”
The selection of AdvanceTEC was based not only on their demonstrated ability to address the advanced technical challenges of the project, but also on their proven project track record with other universities such as Duke University and Purdue University. AdvanceTEC’s university project execution approach focuses on close coordination with the full team involved in the overall building construction, and enables cleanroom project completion on schedule, within budget and to exacting specifications.
