Client Objectives

Ahead had a five-year growth plan to triple in head count.
Keep expenses low.
Maintain a facility that would attract and retain new talent in the Chicago CBD.

Results

Cresa developed pricing models that allowed Ahead to evaluate all real estate options.
Ahead selected a sublease at 401 N. Michigan Avenue which allowed Ahead to utilize new existing conditions at the two penthouse floors in the building.
The total project and relocation costs were materially less than a direct lease or full design/build.
