60,000 RSF

Monroe Capital completed a 60,000 RSF headquarters build-out across two floors, including an interconnecting stair, on a 12-month schedule. Lumen provided project and move management through its Consolidated Contract Delivery model.

The Challenge

Monroe Capital had a lean internal team and needed to deliver a sophisticated new headquarters without dedicating significant internal resources to managing the day-to-day complexity of the project.

The project required:

  • Coordination of a full demolition and build-out across two floors
  • Construction of an interconnecting stair
  • Management of numerous consultants, contractors, and vendors
  • Detailed move planning and execution
  • Delivery within an aggressive 12-month schedule

The challenge was delivering a complex headquarters without making the project a full-time job for Monroe Capital’s team.

Our Approach

Lumen used its Consolidated Contract Delivery model to serve as Monroe Capital’s single point of responsibility for the project. Rather than requiring the client to independently manage contracts, vendors, invoices, scope gaps, and day-to-day coordination, Lumen consolidated the delivery process and managed the project from construction through move-in. This allowed Monroe Capital’s leadership to remain focused on its business while Lumen managed the details required to keep the project moving.

The Outcome

Monroe Capital successfully delivered its new 60,000 RSF headquarters on a 12-month schedule, creating a connected workplace centered around the new interconnecting stair and shared amenity spaces.

The CCD model substantially reduced the time and administrative burden placed on Monroe Capital’s internal team while providing a single source of accountability throughout delivery.

The result was a sophisticated headquarters delivered with significantly less demand on the client’s time and resources.
