Alliiance has worked closely with researchers and product developers on General Mills’ multiple research campuses since 1994. By systematically constructing new and renovating existing laboratory, lab support, office, and pilot plant space, Alliiance has provided spaces that have increased the speed of innovation; agile work environments that foster the sharing of equipment, tools, and ideas.

James Ford Bell Technical Center is currently undergoing an extensive renovation to integrate capabilities that historically reside at the Riverside Technical Center. This campus integration project strategically renovates 210,000 SF of the 650,000 SF campus.

Analytical, a 40,000 SF addition completed in 2015, includes analytical and microbiology laboratories where teams conduct more than 12,000 quality and compliance-related tests each month.
