//PROJECT OF THE YEAR
Chobani, Inc.'s new Greek yogurt facility in Twin Falls, Idaho.
It's All Greek to Me
DBIA HONORS CHOBANI, INC.'S GREEK YOGURT FACILITY AS 'PROJECT OF THE YEAR'
WHEN DBIA and its Awards Jury consider the
"Project of the Year," they think of the best. The
best is not defined by just meeting expectations,
but rather exceeding them. The winner of this
prestigious award demonstrates innovative solutions to project challenges, develops a unique and
high-quality design and effectively uses emerging
technology for project outcomes. Chobani, Inc.'s
new Greek yogurt facility in Twin Falls, Idaho,
earned those accolades this year.
Very few food products have had such a spectacular rise in popularity over the past few years
as Greek yogurt. So Chobani set out to build the
world's largest yogurt plant with the best technolog y, innovative design and extraordinary
efficiency. To meet growing demand from the
Western United States, Chobani chose to build

the plant in Idaho and needed it ready for new
products as soon as possible. It selected the designbuild project delivery method and DBIA member
Shambaugh & Son to lead the design-build team.
Additionally, the yogurt plant needed to
be designed to accommodate new products
and packaging that had not yet hit the market,
requiring flexibility with design and technology
enhancements (some of which hadn't even been
determined). Design-build is often used to enhance
delivery speed, but the need for innovation and
flexibility in the design was also a major reason
Chobani wanted to integrate project delivery.
"Our project goal was to design and build a
facility to redefine the yogurt industry," says Mark
Shambaugh, principal in charge of the project and
CEO of Shambaugh & Son. "By every measure
