C1S Group just landed a design-build contract to turn an existing facility into a cleanroom for an unnamed defense technology company.

The Dallas based firm will build a 5,000 square foot ISO 5 (Class 100) cleanroom, backed by an ISO 8 utility chase, dedicated mechanical spaces, and support areas built for long-term flexibility. Running two different cleanliness standards under one roof adds a layer of complexity a standard industrial buildout never has to touch.

The scope covers the full contamination control playbook:

  • Raised access floor system with modular cleanroom wall components

  • HVAC with HEPA filtration and room-side replaceable fan filter units

  • Specialty gases, nitrogen, vacuum, chilled water, and process cooling

  • Upgraded electrical, controls, fire protection, and life-safety systems

  • Dedicated chemical storage and specialized exhaust systems

One Team, Zero Handoffs: COO Chad Holt said mission-critical facilities need design and construction working together from day one. He called the integrated approach a way to solve technical problems early and give clients a single point of accountability through the entire project lifecycle.

C1S Group has spent over 25 years on mission-critical work, with a portfolio spanning aerospace, defense, secure facilities, and life sciences. This award pushes the firm past $15 million in defense related contracts over the last five years.

Design-build keeps proving its worth on jobs where engineering and construction can't afford to work in separate lanes. Cleanrooms like this one are exhibit A.
