AMS collaborated with a number of companies in the design and manufacture of Gen7. These partners and their products have been integral to making Gen7. These partners include Mitsubishi Electric Cooling and Heating Solutions; Solatube International Inc.; PPG Industries; Culver-Newlin; Chatfield-Clark; All Weather Architectural Aluminum; Armstrong World Industries; Lithonia Lighting; Lutron Electronics; Ultra Touch Insulation; Tandus (Collins/Aikman); Steelscape Inc.; Merit USA; AEP; P2000 Insulation; Price Industries; Tri-Best Visual Display Products; and Central Valley Hardware.

It should be noted that the Gen7 learning environment was developed and designed primarily for the California market and the stringent requirements of the California Department of the State Architect (DSA). As such, the design and engineering specifications for the four seismic zones and 16 different climate zones of that state exceed the typical code requirements of other regions. (This may place Gen7 at an economical price disadvantage as a result; however each project can be considered on an individual basis in regards to logistic and economic viability).
