AWE Tuning has announced another milestone in their growth.
Today the performance parts manufacturer moved into their new headquarters, located at 199 Precision Drive, Horsham, PA 19044. The new headquarters, roughly 3x’s larger than the previous one, will house AWE Tuning’s entire team in a brand new bespoke state-of-the-art facility.
The new facility was created to accommodate AWE Tuning’s growth, which recently increased with their noted launch into manufacturing the AWE Tuning BMW performance line.
About the new facility
The new facility is a bespoke build out on four acres in Horsham, Pennsylvania, starting from a blank slate “big box.” The building was acquired in January 2015 and has been undergoing a gut and renovation since the acquisition.
- The manufacturing floor has been expanded by 10 times from the previous location, including new and existing fabrication equipment.
- The R&D department has also been expanded by 10 times, including “fast access cut throughs” between development vehicles and work stations.
- R&D incorporates a five lift prototyping and development department.
- The office area is a large, open floor layout, housing marketing, engineering, sales and administrative.
Additional areas of the space include:
- A new central in-ground dyno cell, including the AWE Tuning AWD Mustang Dynamometer.
- A multi-car visitor waiting area, featuring visibility into the dyno cell, manufacturing and R&D departments.
- A three dock shipping department and second office area.
- A central “cafe” area to facilitate additional communication between all teams.
- A multi-media lounge.
- Large multi-media conference room.
“AWE Tuning started in a single bay in the Germantown section of Philadelphia. Today, almost 25 years later, the company is one of the most trusted names in performance aftermarket manufacturing. The global growth of the brand required more space for manufacturing, research and development, and office staff,” stated Jesse Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for AWE Tuning.
“Furthermore, our team deserves it. More space, more collaboration, more innovation – it’s all evident the second you walk into our new space, appropriately located on Precision Drive.”
