In over 40 locations and spanning nearly 10 years, Sodexo Technical Services (STS) has been the HVAC construction services provider for a prominent grocery store chain. The client was seeking a provider that could not only fabricate and install the HVAC duct work for the new building, but also do so in a manner that was conducive to their quality standards and timeline. 

Our longtime successful partnership enabled STS to earn an additional contract for a new store in Rockville, Maryland that presented a unique set of challenges. Because this store is set to be situated at the base of a multi-story, mixed-use building with residential apartments above, our adaptability is proving key to our success.

Our Approach

To address the project’s demands, STS is fabricating the duct work in our cutting-edge, 99,000 square foot metal shop in Youngstown, Ohio. Already we’ve adapted by increasing the number of sheet metal workers employed at our Youngstown facility to meet demands. We’re also adjusting to accommodate a variety of building codes, rapidly pivoting as new challenges arrive.

Results

This project has confirmed STS’s capacity to manage large and intricate HVAC construction tasks, particularly those involving mixed-use buildings. Our adaptability has been instrumental in reinforcing our reputation as a reliable and proficient partner.

The ongoing success of our collaboration with this leading grocery store chain highlights Sodexo Technical Services’ commitment to excellence, quality, and adaptability. The growth we’ve experienced in the number of sheet metal workers employed at our Youngstown facility and the endorsement of the grocery store chain in their continued pursuit of our services is evidence of the necessity of adaptability in HVAC construction.

Sodexo Technical Services operates as a one-stop shop, providing comprehensive HVAC construction and facility automation services from ductwork fabrication to installation. The comprehensive nature of our offerings empowers us to adapt to changing needs and tight timelines to ensure unmatched quality on all of our projects.
