PROJECT GOALS:
SPX Transformer Solutions saw an opportunity to capture market share by expanding manufacturing capacity at their Waukesha Electric Systems facility. That called for an investment of $70 million, while government funding offset the total by $25 million. Consolidated Construction served as the Owner鈥檚 Representative on this project.
The expansion increased the size of the facility by 50%, and extended the company鈥檚 ability to manufacture large, high-voltage power transformers used by electric utilities, independent power producers, and independent transmission operators.
The project is comprised of many unique features, including an 18,000 SF shielded room, 110鈥� clear ceiling heights, seven new overhead cranes (including one rated at 500 tons) and extensive new process equipment.
