Value Delivered
Shambaugh provided single-source design-build services on a 325,000-square- foot pork processing facility for Indiana Packers Corporation.
The 14-month project was fast-tracked on a highly efficient work schedule which allowed Indiana Packers to rapidly expand its production operations to meet demand.
Shambaugh also performed extensive in-house prefabrication services for additional efficiency and cost-savings.
Client Objectives
Indiana Packers needed a design-build team to construct a new state-of-the-art processing facility in Delphi, IN.
