Midwest Energy Cooperative HQ
Cassopolis, Michigan
The Challenge
With its fiber-to-home initiative, Midwest Energy is growing quickly. M+H worked with the Cooperative on a design that maintains keeps employees on one campus while showcasing their innovative thinking and collaborative approach to business. A comprehensive site, facility and needs assessment revealed many inadequacies for current and future space needs. Existing buildings required significant modifications for safety, building code requirements and energy efficiency. The overall layout and traffic flow compromised operational efficiencies and serious safety and security concerns were present.
The Solution
Midwest Energy saw the improvements as the best way to attract new customers and strengthen its existing customer satisfaction. The new building layout and design create functional and operational efficiencies that positively impact the bottom line. Creating more than just a physical structure, Midwest’s fiber-based communication system will power utility solutions into the future and provide access to information and data that will help address problems and opportunities in real time.
