SOFTWARE DEVELOPER BRIO RELOCATES TO NEW DEVCON-CONSTRUCTED HEADQUARTERS IN SANTA CLARA

SANTA CLARA -- Software developer BRIO has occupied its new 140,000 square-foot headquarters, built by Devcon Construction, on Great America Parkway. Devcon had begun work on the five-story, single building project in March 2000. BRIO left its previous location at 3460 W. Bayshore in Palo Alto and took possession of its new facility in June 2000.

According to Devcon Project Manager John Kranich, key components of the job included a custom interior and a data room. "We worked an extremely aggressive, overtime schedule to complete the project in three months," he said.

Form 4 acted as both the shell and tenant improvement architect for the project.

Milpitas-based Devcon is the largest general building contractor based in Silicon Valley, and it maintains a regional office in Santa Cruz to manage projects along the coast. With building experience throughout Northern California, Devcon has constructed industrial parks, commercial centers and landmark office buildings, in all totaling some 35 million square feet of shells and interiors.
