.

A North American leader in the manufacturing of heavy-duty trucks trusted Brockamp & Jaeger to build this test center at their corporate headquarters. This facility houses one of the industry’s most advanced engineering and design systems. Freightliner is widely acknowledged as the technological leader in the commercial truck manufacturing industry. Often times, “first” in the industry when it comes to advances in research and development methods, safety, cab and chassis design and vehicle electronics.


Challenges included implementing phased scheduling to impose the least impact on other areas of the Freightliner campus during construction. This project had a very short time frame to meet completion goals which made it essential to solve problems on the fly. Brockamp & Jaeger demonstrated their attitude of “whatever it takes to get the job done right, the first time”. Twenty-eight percent of this project was completed internally by Brockamp & Jaeger labor. Brockamp & Jaeger has developed a valued relationship with Freightliner with over 20 years of working on various sized construction projects.
