The Pangere Corporation is proud to serve as the Construction Manager as Constructor (CMc) for the development of Purdue University Northwest’s Roberts Impact Lab in Hammond, Indiana. Designed by Shive-Hattery Architecture + Engineering, the facility will serve as a regional hub for innovation, research, and business growth, supporting advancements in quantum technology, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, advanced manufacturing, and workforce development.
As the Construction Manager, Pangere is overseeing the project through multiple phases and coordinating the work required to bring the vision for the Roberts Impact Lab to life. Phase 1 encompasses approximately 6,500 square feet, with Phase 2 expanding the renovation by approximately 19,500 square feet. Pangere is helping transform the existing facility into modern research, laboratory, collaboration, and educational spaces designed to connect PNW students and faculty with industry and emerging technologies.
The architectural renderings by Shive-Hattery provide a look at the vision for the completed space, while Pangere continues to manage the construction and transformation of the facility from concept to completion.
Once complete, the Roberts Impact Lab will play an important role in Purdue Northwest’s growing research initiatives and Hammond’s developing innovation district, creating a collaborative environment for education, research, entrepreneurship, and economic development throughout Northwest Indiana.
