Materials management
S E A offers a unique materials management practice that addresses service vehicle impacts on sites, buildings and pedestrian circulation conflicts. We provide building program and site development planning that involves all incoming deliveries, physical plant operations, waste management, and recycling.
Our clients often experience a lack of care in the design and planning for their intricate service operations. Universities and hospitals typically have a range of goods and services which enter and exit their campuses each day. S E A has developed a unique planning approach and benchmarks which enable our architects, planners, and engineers to accurately predict these service needs, and to develop recommendations which streamline operations while enhancing esthetics and sustainability.
