The Challenge
Heidolph needed to identify options on a new office space for its North American headquarters. The company had just 65 days to locate and execute on a space to meet its desired lease start date. Heidolph reached out to us and we got to work.
The Solution
After a thorough deep-dive into Heidolph’s requirements, we identified six locations, narrowing the list down to two attractive new construction options within a few miles of O’Hare. The best fit for Heidolph was an 8,000 square foot space with a Class A finish in a 25,000 square foot new construction building in the Elk Grove/Wood Dale area. In addition to site selection, we also provided layout expertise and connected Heidolph with trusted office furniture vendors.
The Outcome
The deal we negotiated included a turnkey office build-out. The above-market construction allowance enabled Heidolph to develop the high end office space it wanted to complement its corporate image and encourage employee retention. Heidolph’s new building now features four docks, a drive-in door, a 30-foot clearance height, and 54 private parking spaces.
“Bespoke knows the local market inside and out, and they helped us narrow down our options to one perfect space that had everything on our wish list. The deal they brokered will allow us to create a great looking space that fits our needs now and can grow with us in the future.”
