Len Evans New Kitchen, Assiniboine Community College

Balancing Stakeholder Needs: Kitchen Renovation at Assiniboine Community College
As the Capital Projects Director at Assiniboine Community College, I played a key role in facilitating the remodeling to construct a kitchen facility at the college’s North Hill campus.

Project Background
The Len Evans building required a new kitchen to serve the student population. Food services were provided by a vendor who would manage the remodeled kitchen. While the college funded the project, the vendor initially provided specifications for the kitchen design.

Resolving Design Dissonance
A discrepancy arose between the vendor’s corporate office, which envisioned a standardized kitchen solution, and the college’s on-site manager, whose proposed design considered the college’s specific menu and purchasing needs.

Collaborative Approach to Design
I collaborated with the architect to develop solutions that met the college manager’s requirements while also providing the vendor’s corporate office with information that highlighted the strengths of the proposed design. This approach ensured alignment between the college’s unique needs and the vendor’s operational efficiency goals.

Successful Completion
The project culminated in the successful delivery of a food service facility that effectively catered to the college’s student population.
