Project Description

Eighty-year-old Omaha Standard, Inc. is one of the nation’s premier manufacturers of truck bodies, hydraulic truck hoists, lift gates, and other accessories for commercial trucks. Over the years, it grew and expanded into a variety of buildings scattered around the City of Council Bluffs. Faced with the obsolescence and inefficiency of those scattered facilities, OSI needed a consolidated modern plant to maintain its quality and competitiveness. The 200,000 sq. ft. project made it possible for OSI to retain 200 jobs and stay in Council Bluffs with a state-of-the-art facility that will meet its needs for decades to come.
