Project Overview
In August of 2017, HCA’s Medical City Plano patient hospital and level 1 trauma center, located in Plano, Texas, began conceptualizing their $65.5 million bed tower and surgery expansion with JE Dunn at the helm of the construction and Perkins & Will leading design. After being brought on board, Enterprise Solutions faced the largest challenge prefabrication and operations have faced to date with 60% of the construction being manufactured off-site, resulting in 10% schedule savings and 10% cost savings.
Additionally, there was a 25% reduction in peak manpower on this job due to prefabrication, while the underground electrical utility racks were prefabricated and installed in 20% of the normal time required at no cost premium and with less site disruption.
