Project Overview

Westaim Construction was selected to deliver a complete design-build tenant improvement for MNLX Money Exchange inside Harvest Hills, Calgary. The objective was to transform a retail unit into a modern, secure, and highly functional money exchange centre designed to serve customers sending funds internationally. Our team managed every stage of the project—from design coordination and municipal approvals to procurement, construction, and final commissioning—creating a branded financial services environment that balances customer experience, operational efficiency, and security while meeting an accelerated project schedule.

The Challenge

Financial service environments require precise coordination between design, construction, technology, and life-safety systems. The project demanded the integration of modular banking equipment, specialized electrical infrastructure, security preparation, and branded architectural elements without unnecessary structural modifications that would increase permitting costs or delay occupancy.

Working within an active commercial development also required close coordination with the landlord, strict construction logistics, and careful planning to ensure code compliance while maintaining schedule and budget objectives.

Our Solution

Westaim Construction adopted a fully integrated design-build approach that emphasized efficiency, modular construction, and proactive project management. Through detailed site verification, consultant coordination, and phased execution, we successfully streamlined approvals while delivering a modern, future-ready financial services facility.
