Creatively Staying

On Budget

The project faced a number of budget challenges especially relating to fluctuating materials costs. DPR consulted with the owner and recommended breaking the expansion and renovation into four separate projects: main tower, women’s services 1, women’s services 2, and laboratory renovation. Dividing the scope into smaller projects allowed each phase to be closed out earlier, thus reducing the overall financing cost while also allowing the TDSHS certification of the women’s services 1 and 2 portions. Opening these two areas earlier allowed the client to begin generating revenue with the new spaces nine and six months earlier than originally anticipated.
