The package delivery company and logistics provider relies heavily on customer-facing and systems technology, and the new campus is designed to enhance innovation by co-locating technology professionals in one site.
UPS is building a new global technology development center in Parsippany, N.J. to house software developers, designers and other technology professionals who design visibility tools for customers and internal systems for improving package delivery operations, and run UPS’s global network, the company said in a statement.
The 200,000-square foot building will replace an office in Paramus, N.J.
Officials said co-locating technology professionals in one site helps improve collaboration and leads to more innovative solutions, such as Package Flow Technologies.
The four-story building is expected to open in mid-2017. It will be LEED certified and feature a full-service cafeteria, indoor fitness center and a campus hiking trail.
