Project Overview
A full-building lease at 700 Progress Way — recognized as Maryland’s Best Lease of 2024 — anchors AstraZeneca’s expanding Gaithersburg manufacturing footprint. Heffron self-performed the mechanical scope that converted this 197,645-square-foot facility into production-ready space, installing the chilled water plant, high-purity process piping, and base-loaded pump skids that keep a cGMP biological operation running without interruption.
The work sits within a relationship that already spans the company’s MedImmune Way campus and 200 Orchard fit-out — one continuous standard of execution across every AstraZeneca address in Montgomery County.
