In addition to restaurant fit-ups and small office renovations, I have managed a range of mid to large sized projects for Clairol, Inc., a Division of Proctor and Gamble, (formerly a division of Bristol-Myers Squibb).

The Clairol facility is a substantial complex of buildings comprised of Research and Development labs, Administration, Global Marketing Offices and their U.S. manufacturing facility.

In my management role for Clairol, I coordinated the activities of architects, engineers, interior designers, general contractors and trade subcontractors. Because construction within a working environment causes disruption, I maintained regular communication between employees, in-house staff, the Factory Mutual Insurance carrier and various regulatory bodies, to anticipate and solve problems.

Projects I have coordinated on behalf of Clairol, Inc. include:

• Renovations to the Fitness Center
• Creation of new office space requiring structural improvements and office furnishing systems
• Reconfiguration of primary waste line systems
• Installation of negative-pressure exhaust fan systems for R&D labs
• Inventory and compliance verification of fire suppression equipment
• Installation of digital LCD projectors with LAN line interface in all conference rooms
• Renovations to vending room/break room
• Renovations to lobby area
• Industrial scouring of chemical tank farms
• Application of industrial coatings to all building surfaces in the manufacturing facility
• Installation of high performance walkway barriers
• Evaluation and remanufacturing of all signs throughout the facility
