The new headquarters will feature offices for the company’s corporate, engineering and sales departments, as well as an Industry 4.0 technology development and training center. The project is part of a broader US$5 million investment in the 150-year-old company’s facilities.

The investment will include a 15,000-square-foot extension of the company's high-bay manufacturing space, which will increase production and assembly capacity for its core business and its kinetic structures projects; upgrades to its high-voltage electricity infrastructure; and new robotic welding tools, among other things.

“This investment will further expand our technological capabilities as a company and position us as a leader in the next industrial revolution — Industry 4.0,” said Morgan Engineering chief executive Mark Fedor.

Construction on the headquarters is scheduled to be complete by March 2020.
