EARLY PLANNING

Guidance through the challenging terrain of developing space for life sciences

HOK has extensive experience guiding developers and companies through the long, often challenging early processes involved in getting approvals for commercial life sciences facilities.

This process often includes significant site analysis, community outreach, working with local zoning boards and creating solid plans to outline possible use and environmental impacts of any future developments for life sciences. Master planning and development of design guidelines set the stage for future facilities.

HOK partners with development partners like BioMed Reality and end users like Illumina to transform low-density properties into high-density innovation environments through entitlement, master planning, real estate strategy and community engagement.
