“It’s incredibly important to our organization that we are very open about what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, what our strategy is, our finances, how we’re performing, and really promoting a mindset of radical transparency. What I’ve found is that it builds a tremendous amount of trust with our employees in the organization. It’s when they don’t know that there are issues.” Mitch Smith said to John Stearns of 425 Business.

“For a lot of the larger buildings one should consider a pre-engineered metal building (PEMB) with a single skin façade rather than a conventional steel building with concrete tilt-wall construction. With ever-increasing energy code requirements as well as the increased cost of electricity in general, pre-engineered metal buildings can help increase energy efficiency significantly while also reducing overall construction schedules.”
— Doug Brookbank, principal in the Washington, D.C. office, MG2, on industrial and warehouse buildings, especially those larger than 100,000 square feet

The design team was led by Maribel Barba, a project architect and manager who has worked in the Seattle office for a decade and had previously worked on the design of several Costco locations in Washington. “When designing this project we were definitely thinking of it as first and foremost a park and not a commercial center or space.”
美国最大的家居建材零售商家得宝(Home Depot)在经历了十年的建设停滞后，意识到需要一种创新、高效且可持续的全国门店扩张模式。该公司寻求与一家能够提升门店顾客体验，并设计和管理一套量身定制的扩张方案的公司合作，以在品牌持续发展的同时节省资金和时间。
它面临的挑战是彻底改革和转型其发展计划，以便快速高效地建设新店，同时减轻其行政人员的负担。
通过与 MG2 建立新的战略合作伙伴关系，MG2 提供成本管理、权益和全方位项目设计和交付服务方面的品牌专业知识，两家公司旨在将家得宝的新建建筑工期缩短 30%，并实现其他一些目标，包括确定正确的施工方法、实施可持续的解决方案以及吸引社区和管辖区。
为了确定家得宝新店最合适的建造方法和选址，MG2开展了一系列数据驱动的场地分析，将预制金属建筑（PEMB）与混凝土预制墙板建筑进行了比较。这些分析充分考虑并概述了每种方案的既有优势和潜在风险，结果表明选择德克萨斯州休斯顿作为新店址具有显著优势，并支持了家得宝投资建造预制金属建筑作为其仓库的决定。
在制定了数据驱动的路线图后，MG2 的设计师们首先创建并验证了一个深入的原型。通过这一过程，团队确认了该方案具有变革和简化家得宝开发和建造流程的潜力。凭借 MG2 的整体解决方案，这家家装行业的领军企业得以几乎完全放手，从高层视角监督项目进展，而无需处理日常事务。
随着合作关系的不断深化，MG2持续致力于提升效率，为家得宝带来更高的投资回报。除了优化成本和加快产品上市速度外，最终的门店设计还为顾客营造了更简洁、更友好、更明亮的购物体验。更新后的导视系统和教育推广活动也进一步增强了家得宝顾客的家居装修体验。
MG2 的数据驱动型选址分析在 Home Depot 决定投资建设位于德克萨斯州休斯顿的新店的预制金属建筑 (PEMB) 的过程中发挥了至关重要的作用，并将继续在未来门店的选址和施工方法选择中扮演重要角色。尽管初期材料成本较高，但 PEMB 仓库的快速施工最终为全年节省了 0.71 万亿至 3.21 万亿英镑的成本。除了其可持续性优势（尤其吸引城市地区）之外，PEMB 还具有诸多其他优势，包括：
凭借双方的专业知识，MG2 和家得宝 (The Home Depot) 成功开发出创新、高效且经济的解决方案，与品牌推广目标相契合。位于德克萨斯州休斯顿的 PEMB 仓库充分展现了双方合作的成果，并凸显了数据驱动型项目设计在零售空间发展演变中的重要性。
随着合作的深入，两家公司旨在进一步改变家装零售格局，为全国各地的顾客提供更高的价值和更好的体验。
