Cushman & Wakefield Asset Services will provide property management of the headquarters, while the company's facility management group, C&W Services, will handle facility services such as janitorial work as well as some building engineering services. Cushman & Wakefield is also providing move management services to assist Pioneer in its relocation from its previous headquarters location in Las Colinas' Williams Square to Hidden Ridge.

"We are excited about the amenity base for Pioneer," Means tells GlobeSt.com. "They have a state-of-the-art fitness center, day care center with splash pad, physician-staffed wellness center, food hall and outdoor activities/events planned around the fish-stocked pond. Ponds are very rare, especially ones that will be stocked for fishing purposes. It is a one of kind property."

The Pioneer contract is the latest in a productive year for Cushman & Wakefield's Asset Services team. In 2019 alone, it has added more than 4.9 million square feet to its property management portfolio, including nine office buildings and seven industrial properties.

"Pioneer's new headquarters is a significant addition to Las Colinas, and our team is honored to have been selected as the company's partner for property management, facility management, engineering services and move management," said Means.
