Robotic Unitizing and Palletizing System Automation Upgrades for Food and Beverage Manufacturing Facility
Location:
Battle Creek, Michigan
Overview
Perry Construction Management oversaw the demolition and infrastructure upgrades required to replace an existing automated packaging line with a new robotic unitizing and palletizing system at an FDA-regulated food manufacturing facility. From pre-construction containment and demolition through vendor coordination and commissioning, PCM maintained strict GMP compliance and food safety protocols throughout the project lifecycle.
Scope of Work
- Creation of site layout and installation of containment barriers
- Demolition of old equipment, walls, flooring, and foundations
- Infrastructure upgrades to support new system specifications
- Coordination of equipment delivery, receipt, and staging with vendors
- Daily site inspections for quality, safety, and regulatory compliance
- Final system check-out, commissioning, and reporting
Results
The project was executed without disruption to active operations, maintaining strict GMP standards and FDA compliance from start to finish. Through detailed logistics planning, vendor coordination, and daily oversight, PCM delivered a fully operational robotic system that enhanced automation, safety, and production efficiency. The project demonstrated PCM’s ability to manage complex, high-stakes upgrades in regulated food production environments.
