Millstadt Sees Industrial Growth with the Addition of New ITS Headquarters

Posted: Thursday 9th of April 2009 09:26:24 PM

In-Land Technologies Services (ITS) is in the midst of preparing for a new corporate headquarters.  Unlike any other building in Millstadt, the facility will include several internal and exterior features that put this structure within a class of its own.  The building is scheduled to be completed in November 2007.

Located at the corner of East Adams and South Breese, local residents can expect to see considerable changes as construction of the new headquarters continues.  The two-story building will feature an exterior of rough-faced block and brick; accompanied by large windows.  Including the basement, the building will encompass more than 15,000 square feet of space.  Visitors can park in either the front or side of the building.   

"With 1,800 square feet available, I don't foresee a problem filling additional space with a professional firm. Our large offices, dramatic foyer and full-size windows are a few of the amenities we have to offer. We anticipate choosing tenants to fill these spots fairly quickly as construction progresses." says Derek Eastep, chief operating officer for IMG.

IMG selected local architect Gary Shondy to design the building and is working with Gasser Construction, of Millstadt, for the building's construction.  Dan Jackson, of Southwest Bank in Bellville, worked with IMG in financing the project.

"We appreciate the number of businesses around the area who have helped us in the development of our new building," said Rick Schmidt, Jr., president of IMG.  "We feel honored to be located in an up-and-coming area; giving us room for growth and opportunity."

Plans for the building's interior include a state-of-the-art conference room featuring hardwood floors, displays and a cove ceiling; along with high-tech equipment and communication capabilities.  These additions will give ITS up-to-the-minute methods of efficiently communicating with clients.  Once inside the first floor foyer, employees and visitors will notice a divided staircase; giving the building an atrium-like effect.   

"It will be unlike any building in the area," said Linda Saputo, IMG chief financial officer.  "The new ITS headquarters is a true reflection of the unique and novel aspects of the company, which shines through the architecture and feel of the building.  ITS continues to grow and change each year.  As a result, the new building is a better representation of the company's image and capabilities."

The company was founded by Rick Schmidt, Sr., and John Ruggeri.  It was originally located in Dupo, Ill., before moving to Millstadt in 1990. 

ITS is a global leader in full-spectrum service for plant automation and custom fabrication services.  From design to commissioning, ITS has been a respected partner for regional, national and international companies since 1988.
