Management determined that a lab is needed in Japan, and this project entails building an office and lab, and moving two offices into 1,231 m<sup>2</sup> (13250 ft<sup>2</sup>) of leased space. Electron Microscopes are extremely sensitive instruments which need a tightly controlled environment, so the construction of the lab area needed to be completed to a very strict specification. Client was acquired partway through this project, which caused a few new challenges along the way.
