Weiwood Site Selection & Facility Design

We help you find a new home for your business, prioritizing total cost of material and access to talent.

A Facility Optimized for your Operations

Selecting the right site and designing an optimal layout are crucial for your operational success. We conduct detailed supplier, logistics, employee, and regional labor analyses to pinpoint the best location for your facility. Our comprehensive approach covers negotiation, management, and buildout for a variety of spaces including industrial kitting and assembly facilities, warehouses (ambient and temperature-controlled), and offices, training centers, or showrooms, tailored for both B2B and B2C requirements.

 

We help our clients with:

 

  • Employee Travel Analysis: Evaluation of workforce commute patterns, access to transit infrastructure, and geographic dispersion to select sites that support employee satisfaction and retention.

  • Supplier and Customer Transportation Analysis: Logistics modeling to optimize transportation costs and delivery timelines for inbound materials and outbound goods.

  • Contact Center Layout: Ergonomic and acoustically efficient workspace design to support high-performance contact center environments, incorporating collaboration zones and breakout areas.

  • Office Layouts: Custom layout planning for productivity, flexibility, and collaboration, integrating open-plan and private workspaces, huddle rooms, and executive areas.

  • Refrigerated, Ambient, and Bulk Storage Warehouses: Design and spatial planning for multi-temperature warehouses, including racking systems, airflow design, and compliance with industry-specific storage standards.

  • Kitting and Assembly/Value-Added Services Areas: Workflow optimization and material handling layout design for efficient execution of kitting, light manufacturing, and post-production customization services.

  • Packing and Shipping Zones: Integration of staging, packing stations, labeling areas, and dock access to reduce turnaround times and improve outbound shipping accuracy.

  • Bulk Pallet and Pick Bays, Standard Aisle, VNA, and High-Cube Storage: Engineering of storage configurations to maximize vertical space, enable automation compatibility, and improve picker efficiency for both full-pallet and split-case operations.

  • Zoning, Permitting, and Buildout Management: Coordination of local zoning reviews, permit applications, general contractor engagement, and end-to-end oversight of buildout projects from design to handover.

  • Post-Move Operational Support: Transition planning, team orientation, and early-stage performance measurement to ensure smooth start-up and full operational readiness in the new space.

Endorsement

“We executed two moves simultaneously, an office relocation in the same county, and a sampling and distribution center move to another state – all with an inflexible deadline imposed by the condition of our then current site. JD worked with our internal teams to assess potential sites for both moves, study the effects on talent, transportation, lease expenses, labor costs, taxes, inbound and outbound freight and inter-company moves and added management travel, charted it all, and presented the board with well-defined options and recommendations.  These new locations significantly improved our productivity, our access to talent, and the overall experience for our clients.”
