“The Richmond Group recently supported ImmunoGen in consolidating three of our facilities to a new suburban location. I appreciated their thorough approach, spending the time up front to minimize problems during construction, communicating to us regularly about the project including its timeline and the status of projected spending and their practical approach to addressing issues. People always make the difference and they had knowledgeable, committed people on every phase of the project. Richmond understood ImmunoGen’s functional requirements, respected our financial expectations throughout the project coming in under budget and delivered an excellent product for us.”

“I've been working in the Life Science Biotech Industry since 1984 and have been involved with countless construction projects with my level of responsibilities maturing over the same time period. It was 12 years ago when I was first introduced to The Richmond Group and I've been working with them ever since. As a project owner I need a company that is knowledgeable, reliable, responsible and accountable and The Richmond Group is all of that and more. From site surveys to space planning, from construction to occupancy they have continuously delivered our projects as designed, on time and on budget. I am proud of our projects and thankful that The Richmond Group was and is part of our team.”
