AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY PARTNER FOR MORE THAN 100 YEARS

From the dawn of modern transportation to today’s hybrid and electric vehicles, Austin has helped automotive OEMs and their suppliers solve plant and facilities challenges through automotive plant construction. Austin has specialized expertise in plant design and construction, plant expansion and consolidation, network optimization, and in proving grounds, research centers and other support operations.

COMBINED WITH OUR PROVEN PROCESS, THE AUSTIN METHOD, WE DRIVE PREDICTABLE, PROVEN, AND CONSISTENT RESULTS.

AUSTIN TEAM MEMBERS HAVE ASSISTED AUTOMAKERS AND SUPPLIERS TO DELIVER:

  • More than 20 value engineering and re-design concepts for a major body, assembly, and paint shop project, removing nearly $40M in project capital cost.

  • A preliminary plant layout that optimized capital cost and operations.

  • An efficient and controlled relocation of process lines and equipment to support the owner’s business plans without impacting operations.

  • A fully integrated BIM environment in the office and field to improve coordination, reduce errors, improve quality, and save money.

  • A 200,000 SF automotive supplier plan expansion from concept to occupancy in seven months to meet an aggressive production date established by the OEM, all in a fully integrated, in-house, design-build fashion.
