Cost Benefits of Modular vs. Standard Construction

A modular mezzanine, platform, or building is a pre-engineered structure that is flexible enough to satisfy virtually any requirement... expandable and completely re-usable.

The primary advantages for modular include cost savings, speed of delivery, and accelerated depreciation. Not only can an organization save from 20% to 50% of the total cost compared with field construction, there are many other benefits as well.
