At OCP, we undertake a range of planning and design coordination projects, from strategic planning and building feasibility studies to designer selection, ADA coordination, and capital project permits. At each state of planning, we evaluate and prioritize issues of design, sustainability, accessibility, optimal land use, fiscal responsibility, and neighborhood impact. Working on behalf of the Institute, we strive to cultivate a long-term vision that promotes the best possible environment for the fulfillment of MIT’s mission.
