INNOVATION

HEAPY played a crucial role in the development of this project, particularly through the innovative use of prefabricated MEP utilities. This strategic approach was taken from the very beginning to maximize the team’s ability to reduce project costs and improve schedule adherence. Ultimately, leveraging prefabrication will minimize procurement lead times, shorten installation periods, and alleviate coordination issues during construction.

COLLABORATION

The project leveraged an integrated team approach with the design team, owner, contractor, and construction management firm working hand-in-hand throughout the entire design and construction process. Regular weekly coordination meetings and continuous communication were instrumental in maintaining alignment and fostering a seamless workflow during design.
