Vanport Building (4th and Montgomery)
This is a new, 7-story, 175K SF, LEED Gold building. Using IPD and modeling under PAE, we streamlined electrical design, cut RFIs, and delivered efficient, coordinated systems.

Description
In collaboration with Portland State University (PSU), Portland Community College (PCC), Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), and the City of Portland, a new 7-story, 175,000 SF facility was constructed on the PSU campus. The building provides shared space for all four institutions and includes 356 classroom seats and 536 office desks to support a wide range of academic and administrative functions.
The project achieved LEED Gold certification, reflecting a strong commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency. With multiple stakeholders involved, the team adopted an Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) approach—promoting collaboration, reducing waste, and streamlining decision-making.
Under the guidance of PAE, our team led the electrical modeling efforts to support design coordination, minimize RFIs, and ensure an efficient, high-quality outcome.
