Bobcat Company has completed a $4.8 million renovation of its Bismarck, North Dakota, manufacturing facility.
The project modernized 22,560 square feet of shared spaces across the facility, including employee breakrooms, meeting areas, conference rooms and office spaces. With refreshed finishes, updated furnishings and a collaborative layout.
“At Bobcat, we believe investing in our facilities is an investment in our people and our future,” said Mike Ballweber, president, Doosan Bobcat North America, Inc. “These renovations benefit everyone who works here. By creating modern, collaborative and welcoming spaces, we empower employees to push boundaries, spark new ideas and shape the future of our industry. North Dakota is not only our home — it’s the foundation of our growth and innovation.”
More than 700 professional and production employees work at the Bobcat Bismarck Manufacturing Facility, where excavators and aftermarket parts are manufactured. Bismarck is also home to the Bobcat Acceleration Center, a key engineering facility and innovation hub for all Bobcat equipment distributed globally.
Updates include enhancements to improve both employee safety and overall productivity, now offering modernized ergonomic workstations, collaborative workspaces, and advanced warning lighting systems.
The renovations complement Bobcat’s broader investment strategy in North Dakota and beyond. Over the last decade, the company has invested more than $82 million in its North Dakota facilities and nearly $260 million in its locations across the United States.
The project was supported by Shultz + Associates Architects and Capital City Construction, with additional contributions from Skeels Electric, Advance Mechanical Inc., InterOffice Furniture, Connect Interiors LLC, and Professional Install LLC.
In addition to its operations in Bismarck, Bobcat employs more than 5,000 people at offices, facilities and manufacturing operations across North America.
