Pacific Catch

Walnut Creek, California

Design & Project Management

This project was initiated in the early summer of 2017 with Pacific Catch looking to combine the benefits of several Rapids & Affiliates companies to help them realize a better complete investment in their equipment package. They had worked with Rapids’ affiliated company, Chain Restaurant Solutions, for a time before inquiring about a partnership on the design/build portion of their projects. This gave them the opportunity to learn the customer-focused nature of the Rapids & Affiliate companies’ approach to partnering with their multi-unit customers.

Rapids was originally brought into the project after preliminary designs for the space had been completed. After being engaged by our client, Pacific Catch, we worked collaboratively to identify opportunities for improvement to the preliminary layout that improved the overall budget, operational effectiveness, and energy efficiency. Through this process, Rapids identified substantial cost-reducing measures for the initial capital investment required for the package, as well as long-term operational cost reductions using more efficient equipment obtained through our Rapids Wholesale affiliate.

After having finalized the design, Rapids’ project management and design teams worked closely with the architect and general contractor for this project to ensure that all utility and construction coordination was managed proactively to avoid costly modifications at the end of the project.
As construction proceeded and time came to install the kitchen equipment package, the project management team from Rapids utilized its nationwide network of qualified installers and subcontractors to deliver, install, and start up the entire kitchen equipment package for our client.
