Mercedes-Benz U.S. International selected the team now employed by B.L. Harbert International to provide construction services for its new, 128,000 square foot Training and Visitor Center in Vance, Alabama.

The Training Center provides classroom space and shop areas where Mercedes-Benz employees participate in technical and hands-on training in automotive production.

The 24,000 square foot Mercedes-Benz Visitor Center provides the general public with an opportunity to learn about the history of the world's oldest automaker, showcasing the company's passenger vehicles from the late 1800s to the present. Adjacent to the company's first North American passenger vehicle plant, the Center includes exhibits detailing the history of Daimler-Benz, including its products, technology and commitment to safety.

Bill Harbert International Construction, Inc. (BHIC) was the contractor of record for the project. In January 2000 all employees of BHIC became employees of B.L. Harbert International (BLHI). The management and supervisory teams now employed by BLHI constructed the project.
