IIDA NE’s Interior Design Awards recognize New England firms for outstanding interior design and excellence in teamwork. The awards were judged by a national audience of industry professionals outside of the New England region.

According to Project Executive Steven Wassersug: "The team's commitment to open communication and teamwork resulted in an exceptional office and laboratory facility for our client PerkinElmer. This award recognizes the collaboration of many talented individuals, and we extend our congratulations to all firms involved." Jamie Audette served as construction manager, Kevin White and John Kirk as superintendents, and Chris Hardiman was the estimator on the assignment. Move management was coordinated by Dale Buckley and Tully Zipkin. The PerkinElmer project team is headed by Bill Bailey.

PerkinElmer’s Waltham office serves as their new corporate headquarters and laboratory facility. Features of the office include open floor plans for all common areas, executive offices, a high-end boardroom, multiple conference areas, a two-story dining area with skylight, two interior stair systems, and an employee fitness facility.

Jones Lang LaSalle has a longstanding relationship with PerkinElmer and has provided leasing and move management services to the life science leader in addition to construction management. In 2005, Jones Lang LaSalle’s construction team and ADD Inc worked together on the fit out PerkinElmer’s 42,000-square-foot office and
laboratory building on Albany Street in Boston, Mass.

Jones Lang LaSalle’s construction team is an innovative manager of over $190 in project volume annually. Their work ranges from small interior buildouts to large mixed-use developments with projects including office, laboratory, manufacturing and distribution facility, renovation, R&D facility and retail projects.
