They profile a Boehringer Ingelheim initiative to modernize infrastructure and operations through tactical renovations aligned with a strategic seven-year master plan, enabling program growth without new construction. They examine the latest space allocation data shaping research facility architecture and highlight criteria for more human-centric solutions.
