5 Results Way Cupertino

Posted onby admin

It seems that Apple’s current campus in Cupertino is just not cutting it. In addition to Apple’s dream space-ship like campus that is expected to open in 2015, Apple has just leased out a nine building campus in Cupertino that could fit up to 1300 employees. The campus, which may be renovated prior Apple’s move in, is currently known as the Results Way Corporate Center and sits at 5 Results Way Cupertino, CA. Mercury News reports:

Up to 1,300 people could work at the Results Way complex. That number is derived from parking ratios supplied by the city of Cupertino. The complex consists of nine buildings, according to an offering flier issued by the property owner, Belmont-based Embarcadero Capital Partners. The buildings are being marketed by brokers from the San Jose office of Colliers International, a commercial realty brokerage.

Apple’s demand for space is more than what Cupertino and the surrounding areas can hold it seems:

Apple is yet to officially announce this extension of their main 1 Infinite Loop campus, but we will likely hear more about it as building plans and specifics emerge in the coming months. Apple will surely want to get this campus up and running soon, as it sounds like an interim campus extension until the “spaceship” opens in about four years. A shot from the air is after the break.

Measurex was an American company based in Cupertino, California. It was one of the first companies to develop computer control systems for industry, primarily the paper-making industry. The development of the control systems included the development of control software, and development of scanning sensors to measure different properties of paper.

The company was acquired by Honeywell in March 1997,[2] at a price tag of almost $600 million.[3][4][5] At the acquisition, Measurex had 2,250 employees in 30 countries and revenue of $254 million.

History[edit]

Early years[edit]

Measurex was conceived in 1967 by David A. 'Dave' Bossen,[6][7] then a sales manager at Industrial Nucleonics, and the new company opened its doors on January 18, 1968,[1] in Santa Clara, California. It was first a garage set-up based on paper industry experiences (circa 1966) at 330 Mathew Street, but later moved several miles southwest to Cupertino to an old cannery property.[8] Ground was broken for the 52,000-square-foot (4,800 m2) new headquarters in July 1971 and it opened the following year. Its initial public offering of 60,000 shares was completed on March 28, 1972, trading as symbol MSRX on NASDAQ. In 1973, a 20,000 sq ft (1,900 m2) plant was opened in Waterford, Ireland, in June and 41,000 sq ft (3,800 m2) was added to the Cupertino campus.[1]

The use of mini-computers was a part of the business plan, and Measurex initially used the Hewlett Packard2116B mini-computer in the MX1000 (1968) and MX2000 (1974)systems. Later on, with the MX2001 systems (1977), Measurex used the 21MX mini-computer.

In 1978, 127,000 sq ft (11,800 m2) was added in Cupertino, the Waterford plant expanded to 80,000 sq ft (7,400 m2), and a new 47,000 sq ft (4,400 m2) facility in Ireland was constructed in Cork. By the end of the year, nearly 1,000 systems had been installed in 25 countries and Measurex had more than 1,800 employees worldwide.[1]

Starting with the MX2002 systems in 1980, Measurex started to use the DECLSI 11. Intel based system was introduced with the MX2002 Vision systems (using Intel 8086[8]) in 1983, but still with the LSI 11 as a Scanner Support Processor (SSP). The reason for keeping the older LSI 11 in the architecture, was the computer's ability of near real-time processing of gauge data and also the LSI 11's support for hardware interrupts.[citation needed]

Acquisition of Devron[edit]

Measurex acquired the British Columbia firm Devron-Hercules Inc. in 1991.[9] Devron was a company specializing in solutions for Cross Directional optimization of the paper sheet in paper machines.

Acquisition of Roibox[edit]

In April 1993, Measurex acquired the Finnish company Roibox Oy, for approximately $1.7 million.[10]

Honeywell-Measurex[edit]

Honeywell kept the name Measurex for a number of years after the acquisition, giving the subsidiary the name Honeywell-Measurex.

Development of sensors[edit]

Early sensors were almost exclusively based on continuous process pulp and paper making, beginning with basis weight, moisture, caliper and whiteness. Later sensors were developed for new industries, including tire calendaring, cigarette fill, aluminum rolling mill gage thickness and others. Some of the early sensors were based on emissions from radioactive source materials it would probably be difficult for a similar firm to experiment with today. Even with the regulatory and training burden, nuclear sources continue to be the core sensor for sheet moisture and basis weight.

Service[edit]

Measurex had a service business that was 40% of the annual revenue. Most of the mills at the time could not support computer control system, and at the same time get an up-time of 99% or better. Measurex provided dedicated, on-site service for this, since it was a very expensive investment for a mill to train a technician.

Customers of Measurex systems reported that the dedication and expertise of the service organization was a considerable factor in creating the customer confidence that resulted in sales growth, especially the repeat sales that fueled the remarkable growth during the 25 years leading up to the acquisition by Honeywell. As founder Dave Bossen often told service personnel: 'Our results are far greater with a superior field service organization working with average systems, compared to manufacturing superior systems, but installed and maintained by an average field service organization'. Of course, he was also quite emphatic about having manufacturing produce superior systems as well, resulting in their standing as a lead supplier of quality and control systems for the paper industry.

Results guarantee[edit]

One business strategy for Measurex was the Result Guarantee, which allowed the customer to return the Measurex system. This allowed customers to gain confidence in the systems. In 1975 a company wide competition was held for employees to name the new street upon which the new Measurex facilities were built. None of the employee submittals was selected and founder Dave Bossen chose '1 Results Way' to amplify the company's commitment to results. (not quite the whole story, the selection committee gave the award for the name to the employee who submitted 'Digital Drive' but Dave changed it to 'Results Way,' stating that digital was a technology with only temporary relevance and what if the street had been named a few years earlier as 'Analog Ave'?)

Corporate campus[edit]

The twenty-acre (8 ha) Measurex campus in Cupertino became the 'Results Way Corporate Center,' owned by Embarcadero Capital Partners of Belmont.[11][12]

In 2011, Apple Inc. leased the property and it became the company's Results Way campus.[12] Embarcadero sold the 383,000-square-foot (35,600 m2) complex to New York City-based Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management in 2013.[13]
