Who We Are Full Service Design in One Firm CH2M HILL is an international design firm with multiple offices worldwide. We founded our company with the belief that high-performance buildings must combine a clear architectural vision with advanced systems engineering. Our single-source structure provides a full range of services, including planning, architecture, engineering, construction management, and facility services. With origins in science and technology, we work with clients on the cutting edge of their professions, from designing the latest computer chip to unraveling the mysteries of DNA. IDC Architects is a CH2M HILL company, which is employee owned and the world’s leader in environmental engineering and design.

Our highly collaborative design process helps create places that allow our clients to maximize the benefits of advanced technology.

CH2M HILL is a global project delivery firm spanning the full spectrum of facility and infrastructure design, applying technology and innovation to help our clients build a better world.

CH2M HILL’s services span the full range of facility work, from early planning and site selection through architecture, engineering, construction, and facility operations, all tailored to specific client needs.

“Having an integrated design team with outstanding engineering expertise to couple with the architectural design team was crucial to the success of this project and IDC (Architects) is one of the few companies that we know capable of providing this degree of integration.”

We believe that lasting value is achieved through a successful combination of aesthetics and technical excellence, and that innovation can be achieved at any budget.

Our Design Process Building on a Foundation of Teamwork Communication Good communication is the key to a successful design process. Working from dedicated multidiscipline team studios, we explore options with our clients in an atmosphere of trust and respect. Using focused design charrettes and specialized techniques like “rapid prototyping” we work together to refine the best ideas into a solution that fulfills project goals and reflects the unique vision of each client.

Teamwork Our design approach is built on teamwork, with clients, designers, and builders fully engaged in the process. The result is better coordination, improved performance, and more responsive solutions. We use our experience to lead the team through the design process, but our ethic is to regard all team members as equals.

At CH2M HILL, we use wall meetings and programming sessions to develop a complete team understanding of project requirements and define cohesive project solutions

Making Great Buildings Collaboration The design process is about ideas: finding them, refining them, and making sure the best ones find their way into the final solution. We pursue ideas collaboratively, with all team members contributing in an atmosphere of trust and respect. Our architects and engineers sit in team spaces organized by project. These design studio environments encourage informal, frequent dialogue among all project team members, and support seamless coordination between disciplines.

Innovation Our clients are leaders. CH2M HILL contributes to their success with innovative designs that help push the boundaries of discovery and keep them ahead of the competition. Our integrated design process creates a synergy between client, designer, and builder that leads to breakthrough solutions.

Building information models allow us to anticipate design requirements and the effectiveness of our solutions prior to construction.

We are recognized as world leaders in environmental design and are committed to sustainable practices both within our firm and in the design services provided to our clients around the world. Our facility-wide solutions account for each building system over the long term to achieve the highest possible energy and resource efficiency.

IDC Architects commitment to environmental sustainability is part of our corporate culture. • Committee Member: U.S. Green Building • Council Committee Member: National Renewable Energy Laboratory

Eco-charrette Our two-day workshops focus on sustainable design strategies for the project. By exploring the way sustainability decisions impact client culture, construction schedule, and life-cycle costs, we are able to integrate sustainable design as appropriate to each client’s goals.

Control Systems

Patented Mechanical Equipment

High Performance Building Model

Our engineers have invented numerous pollutionreducing and energy-saving pieces of equipment, including the OptiMAH makeup air handler, which can reduce energy costs by up to 25%.

Lifecycle Cost Analysis We help clients examine their entire production systems worldwide to decrease pollution, limit use of petroleum, conserve water and energy, and recycle waste, with significant savings in operating costs.

The instrumentation and controls systems we design, install, and operate for advanced technology facilities help achieve peak performance levels that save energy, reduce waste, and provide valuable system trend data for owners and tenants. Our team of architects, interior designers, and engineers analyze more than 40 sustainable design issues to create building models that incorporate solutions for daylighting, improved indoor air quality, reduced operating cost, and increased employee productivity.
