Company Builds Custom, State-of-the-Art
Facility as Plano’s Newest Corporate Neighbor
FedEx Office® moved into a custom-built corporate campus
covering 265,000 square feet of space in the Legacy Business Park
in Plano, Texas. The new FedEx Office building consolidates
multiple locations and approximately 1,200 FedEx team members into
the new Plano location.
“The team at the corporate office supports more than 14,000 team
members and 1,800 retail centers across the United States and
Canada,” said Brian Philips, chief executive officer, FedEx Office.
The new facility brings our team members together under one roof,
increasing collaboration and enabling us to provide even better
support for our internal and external customers.”
FedEx Office worked with developer KDC, broker JLL, architecture
firm HKS, as well interior design company HOK to build and design
the campus. Rogers-O’Brien Construction designed the core and
shell, and Balfour Beatty Construction completed the interior
finish-out. The interior workspaces were designed to help team
members build stronger relationships with colleagues in a community
environment and include the latest technology, open work spaces,
and sit and stand desks.
Team member wellness is a central part of the building design,
which features a walking trail, sports court, fitness center fully
equipped with weights, cardio and TRX equipment, and a virtual
group fitness room. The virtual group fitness room will allow team
members to select from a variety of workouts from cycling to
kickboxing that will be instructor-led from a television screen
inside of the fitness “studio.” Wellness rooms for new mothers and
an onsite cafeteria with healthy eating options are also part of
the design.
Artwork throughout the campus showcases the company’s printing
capabilities and is printed on a variety of substrates, including
brushed metal, aluminum and recycled board. A high-resolution
photograph of award-winning artist Sonia King’s “Nebula Chroma”
mosaic is printed on various substrates and displayed in the
four-story stairwell of the building.
A mock store, which is a full storefront mirroring the design of
FedEx Office retail locations, with state-of-the-art equipment,
allows for onsite testing of new equipment and machines, and
packing and shipping products prior to entering the field.
Additionally, a centralized Network Operations Control Center
(NOCC) allows the FedEx Office team a holistic view of all retail
and commercial print production and distribution across the
network, as well as its fleet of Same Day City delivery trucks.
As new Collin County neighbors, FedEx Office has committed to
serving its new community, and announced a $150,000 donation to
Boys and Girls Club of Collin County. The funds will be used to
expand academic and mentoring programs as well as provide volunteer
opportunities for FedEx Office team members.
