MaineGeneral hospital project succeeds with IPD strategy
Largest project in MaineGeneral Health's history was executed with an integrated project delivery (IPD) contract, according to an article on the Healthcare Design website
The 192-bed, $322 million MaineGeneral hospital project consolidated two aging facilities and was the largest project in MaineGeneral Health's history, according to an article on the Healthcare Design website. The project was executed with an integrated project delivery (IPD) contract. “I liked the tenets of it. I saw that when it was done right, the results are excellent. So we headed off in that direction,” said Chuck Hays, MaineGeneral president and CEO.
As CMS deadlines approach and renovation projects accelerate, healthcare facility managers must understand how NFPA 101, state fire codes and sprinkler design strategies intersect.
Research and education are intentionally embedded in the hospital’s design, with dedicated spaces for scientific collaboration, clinical investigation and training.
The completed tenant improvement includes approximately 100,000 square feet of improved space across two buildings and represents an investment of $65 million.
