UofL Health West Tower Expansion: Building Continuous Design & Construction Alignment Through Structured Collaboration to Deal with Changing Budgets

  • Structuring design collaboration to reduce inefficiency by alternating architectural/ structural/civil and MEP-focused meetings every two weeks
  • Integrating design and trade input early to bridge constructability feedback with design intent
  • Keeping files and design documentation updated following the identification of inconsistencies to inform operations teams of design decisions
  • Embedding operations and preconstruction teams together in budgeting so project managers co-own estimates from day one
