Project Details:
The Alien Technology Project consisted of two concrete tilt up buildings with a steel structure all glass connector building totaling 85,000 s.f. Approximately 30,000 s.f was designed and built with a wide open office usage. The remaining 55,000 s.f. was designed for their manufacturing process of RF Tags.

With functionality and process flow in mind, the project was designed with four separate, but complete sections. When entering the building, you are encaptured by the link building. Standing roughly 40', this glass skin structure houses the lobby, where you can be directed to either the office side or the manufacturing side.

Veering to the left, you will go down an "alienesque tube" to be greeted in the office space by two automatic "star trek" doors that swoosh open. Veering to the right, you would be greeted by an air shower and changing room to enter the manufacturing side. Though it wasn't built, the manufacturing side was designed for H3, H7, and B2 occupancies with multiple cleanliness levels from class 100 to class 10,000 to class 100,000. A complete waste treatment systems for chemical discharge was incorporated.

While with a previous employer, Keith DeBrine managed all aspects of this project to include design, construction, Audio Visual, Security, and Data Cabling. Since the funding for this project came from a developer loan as well as funds directly deposited by Alien with the developers bank; loan draws, project financing, and budget tracking and management all fell under Keith's responsibilities on this project.

"It was quite refreshing to watch you steer your way through the many problems"
"....Your experience and diligence were invaluable to me during this last
year and I relied heavily on you to educate me and make good decisions based
on the unusual financing scenario of this project."
