Our Work
PPM has extensive experience in commercial real estate program management across multiple industries around the nation. Below is a sampling of the diversity of our work in Workspace Consulting, Capital Project Management, and Transition & Relocation Management.
Babson College
In honor of Babson College’s centennial, several significant capital projects were in progress, including a new ground-up Recreation and Athletic Facility (BRAC), Horn Library interior renovation, and college executive and administration wing renovation. Babson realized its facilities team required additional support to plan and execute a multi-phased move of facilities, while renovating in place and creating ‘swing” space to run summer programming. PPM was hired to provide transition and relocation management program oversight, move and communications planning and execution, and help manage the impact to staff, faculty and students while working closely with the Babson team to open successfully.
