Celebrating Excellence with One of AEI’s Longest-Standing Clients
We’re pleased to share that the Genentech Building 86 (B86) Laboratory has received an Award of Merit in Interior/Tenant Improvement and Excellence in Safety in Engineering News-Record (ENR) West’s 2025 Northern California Regional Best Projects program. Awards like these remind us how collaboration, trust, and shared vision lead to lasting impact—values that have defined our 30-year relationship with Genentech across more than 300 projects.
A member of the Roche Group, Genentech has long been at the forefront of biotechnology, driving innovation to improve lives. B86, an approximately 230,000-square-foot, seven-story facility, was designed as South San Francisco’s first all-electric laboratory, advancing Genentech’s decarbonization goals and supporting the pursuit of LEED® Gold, WELL, and Fitwel certifications.
AEI has worked on more than 90 projects for Genentech over the past five years (2020 – 25), supporting innovative and sustainable research facilities.
The project delivers flexible, adaptable lab space that enables evolving research and operational needs while upholding the highest safety standards. AEI provided mechanical, electrical, piping, fire protection, and technology design services, contributing to a sustainable, resilient, and safe research environment.
