The Peterbilt Plant Expansion's first phase involved adding 18 dock doors, an extended metal canopy, a new truck well, and modifications to adapt the existing building to the expansion. The second phase included the expansion of the West Dock. This includes warehousing with new dock doors and levelers on the north facade and the extension of the current warehouse to the west and south, with 11 new dock doors in the south. Phase three involved the installation of a new automated parts move and retrieval system to increase the quantity of productivity the plant can produce, structural upgrades to the existing building to support this new system on a mezzanine above the existing plant without shutting down the plant or production, the addition of three new elevator parts lifts and an extension of the rooftop enclosure to accommodate the new lifts.
The entire design-build project was a 19-month effort, totaling 75,000 square feet of space, and did not impact the ongoing activity of the existing plant.
