Paulien & Associates, Inc. prepared a detailed analysis of the space needs for the Department of Astrophysical, Planetary, and Atmospheric Sciences (APAS) which includes two major research centers, one of which constructs space instruments. Paulien & Associates also prepared a detailed application of state guidelines to the Department of Physics to show their additional space needs as part of a proposal to build an addition to the building they occupied.
As part of the project team, Paulien & Associates developed the program plan for the Science Library on the CU-Boulder Campus. The program plan included a space needs analysis, a concept phase describing the building envelope, and a final formal document that met the Colorado Commission on Higher Education requirements including a budget and schedule for the project.
