Hexagon's Manufacturing Intelligence Division Breaks Ground on New Center of Excellence



Hexagon's Manufacturing Intelligence division announced it has broken ground on the construction of a new expansion project on a 5-acre site in Novi, MI. Slated for completion in the Fall of 2019, the 88,000 sq. ft. building will house a technology showroom, a technical training center and a 15,000 sq. ft. laboratory and calibration hub. The two-story office area will have glass walls and windows presenting a view of the nearly 11,000 sq. ft. Hexagon showroom and demonstration area from both levels.

Expanding Hexagon's presence in the Midwest, the Center of Excellence will serve as a cornerstone to support advanced manufacturing in the region. Hexagon will consolidate all of its Manufacturing Intelligence businesses in the greater Detroit area into a central location, which includes MSC Software, Production Software (formerly Vero Software), Q-DAS and its metrology solutions portfolio. Employees from the AutonomouStuff and Safety Critical brands of Hexagon's Positioning Intelligence division will also work from the new site.

The two-story property will meet or exceed all aspects of the current Michigan Uniform Energy code. The building design will incorporate lighting controls and sensors to reduce energy consumption and take advantage of exterior daylight to supplement office area lighting. The floor plan features open common office spaces and separate huddle areas to encourage collaboration and innovation. Other employee amenities include a fitness gym, coffee bars, lounges and a modern break room designed for multi-purpose functions including meetings and events "Hexagon is focused on providing an environment that empowers team work, problem solving and a high level of productivity among formerly separate areas of the business," said a Hexagon spokesperson.

"This is an exciting project for us, as we will utilize our vast wealth of Hexagon technologies during the build process - from total stations for surveying to digital construction. Ultimately, this state-of-the-art facility reflects the next phase in Hexagon's own data-driven evolution across industries to shape smart change," said Angus Taylor, President and CEO of Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence North America. "Our investment in this Center of Excellence allows us to consolidate our technology teams and put them into a 21st century workspace that will serve both customers and employees with the highest quality services and workplace environment."
