Motorola Schaumburg Campus

Motorola Solutions, Inc. (MSI) and CBRE engaged WBK Engineering to complete an existing conditions assessment of the 325-acre property and to facilitate transition from a single-user to a multi-user campus. The campus infrastructure was mapped to begin the process of design and entitlements to allow for the creation of the first campus subdivision and the design of a new campus spine roadway.

Initially, our staff completed final engineering design for the construction of the first phase of new infrastructure to facilitate the subdivision and sale of a 32-acre parcel to Zurich North America and the additional sale of right-of-way to the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority (ISTHA). Our team then continued to work with the tollway authority for transportation and utility planning and a re-subdivision to create additional for-sale parcels.

We also completed a traffic study and a FAR modeling study to compare the existing campus development to future development scenarios to assist in Tax Increment Financing (TIF) negotiations with the Village of Schaumburg. Our staff worked with the Village of Schaumburg to gain the required entitlements and variances needed for the subdivision process as well as completed a concept design for a mixed-use town center campus reuse plan to assist MSI in transitioning out of its ownership of the existing facilities.

Our team's role has been that of a trusted advisor for the ongoing campus redevelopment.

Our team has continued to work with MSI on site design modifications to existing facilities including the iconic Motorola Tower. We have completed the design and final engineering plans for parking lot modifications to the existing lots as well as circulation and access improvements and stormwater management provisions for new parking lot facilities in the existing circle turnaround as well as for a newly constructed lot on the east side of the property.
