Office Maximizing

By: The Norman Transcript

Work continues on a 10,400-square-foot addition to Office Max, formerly Boise Cascade, a call center in the Norman Business Park. The call center, built in 2000, now has 230 employees. The company says another 140 to 160 salespeople will be added when the expansion is completed in October. A spokesperson said Boise Cascade acquired Office Max in late 2003 and assumed the Office Max name in mid-2004 because of the recognition associated with Office Max retail centers throughout the country. General contractor for the project is Clayco, of St. Louis. The architect is Forum Studio, also of St. Louis. A Norman city building permit indicates the project cost is $1.3 million.
