Lebanon, NJ — December 3, 2022
Rv3 Solutions, a leading corporate real estate advisory and asset management firm, served as the full project coordinator for a confidential, large-scale site selection and predevelopment initiative on behalf of a branded consumer product company advancing a major reshoring strategy within the United States.
The project, which was evaluated across multiple southeastern states, was designed to support the development of approximately 1.6 million square feet of advanced manufacturing, distribution, and supporting operational infrastructure. Rv3 Solutions led a fully integrated engagement spanning confidential site selection, location analytics, predevelopment coordination, and stakeholder alignment across competing jurisdictions, guiding the effort from early-stage evaluation through predevelopment planning.
The assignment included a comprehensive analysis of state and local incentives, labor market conditions, logistics modeling, and community-level underwriting, providing the client with a detailed, forward-looking perspective on both near-term feasibility and long-term operational performance. Rv3 coordinated directly with multiple state and regional economic development agencies, managing a structured, competitive process that optimized financial and operational outcomes while maintaining strict confidentiality throughout the engagement.
Jerry Moore, Chief Executive Officer and President at Rv3 Solutions said, “This type of assignment required a disciplined and highly coordinated approach across both public and private stakeholders,” the firm noted. “We managed a dynamic, multi-state process and aligned incentives, labor strategy, infrastructure, and long-term scalability into a clear decision framework for the client.”
A key component of the engagement was Rv3 Solutions’ ability to leverage its broader platform to support specialized analysis and execution. The firm’s GeoEconomic Institute affiliate provided advanced location analytics, including labor availability, cost benchmarking, supply chain positioning, and long-term economic modeling. At the same time, Stearns and Associates, an Rv3 Solutions alliance partner, supported land planning, test fitting, and site constraint analysis, evaluating development feasibility across multiple candidate locations to ensure alignment with the client’s operational and facility requirements.
Rv3 operated in a centralized project coordination role throughout the process, aligning internal client teams, site ownership groups, public agencies, developers, planners, and engineering partners. This included oversight of site control strategies, entitlement pathways, infrastructure planning, and early-stage design coordination, creating continuity from strategic evaluation through predevelopment execution.
“Projects of this scale require more than traditional site selection—they demand a cohesive strategy that integrates location analytics, incentives, land planning, and execution across multiple stakeholders,” said Chuck Bower, Chief Real Estate Officer at Rv3 Solutions. “By leveraging our GeoEconomic Institute platform alongside the technical expertise of Rv3 Solutions and Stearns and Associates, we were able to deliver a coordinated approach that brought clarity to a highly complex, multi-state process and positioned the client to move forward with confidence.”
The southeastern United States continues to attract advanced manufacturing investment due to its expanding labor base, strong infrastructure network, and favorable business conditions. Rv3’s structured evaluation approach provided the client with a clear understanding of how each location performed across key operational, financial, and strategic metrics.
Rv3 Solutions remained at the center of the engagement through completion, guiding the project through final site selection and predevelopment and positioning the initiative for successful execution as part of the client’s broader reshoring strategy.
