Projects include a $5.5 million expansion of the main tower building, an $11 million gut renovation of the main tower’s third floor, and a $7 million, 10,000-sq.-ft. Cellular and Tissue Engineering Laboratory that supports the medical center’s stem cell, cellular, tissue, and gene therapy programs.

Cumming is providing project and cost management services for MUSC’s new 625,000-s.-ft. Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital and Women’s Pavilion. Cumming was rehired by MUSC after our performance on various projects for the client since 2003, such as their Ashley Tower. The Children’s Hospital and Women’s Pavilion will be a high-end facility focused on tertiary and quaternary cases in South Carolina and the Lowcountry region. The building consists of an 11-story bed tower and six story diagnostic and treatment building. The new facility, which is phase two of a 30-year hospital replacement program, will hold about 200 patient beds. This facility will also include a neonatal intensive care unit, a pediatric intensive care unit, a large labor and delivery unit, a special care nursery, and specialized children’s emergency services. Associated scope includes numerous security elements. The Pavilion is scheduled to be completed during the third quarter of 2019. The approximate cost of this program is $385 million. The delivery method is CM-at-Risk.

The Synergy Medical Office Building project is a five-story, mixed-use building with four levels of office over one level of retail space, parking consisting of one level of below-grade parking, one level of at-grade parking, and one level of above-grade parking containing approximately 293 parking spaces. The total building is approximately 110,000-sq.-ft. of conditioned space, across the street from Swedish Medical Center in Englewood, CO.

The Denver Hospice Project included a new 35,000-sq.-ft., 24-bed inpatient facility. The Hospice realized a long-held dream by completing an inpatient care center at Lowry, the first inpatient hospice care center in the City of Denver. Project One Cumming provided the full suite of project management services.

Cumming served as lead cost manager on this $262 million, 435,166-sq.-ft. template hospital for Kaiser Foundation Health Plan. Our services included initial detailed construction cost estimates for the conceptual and schematic design phases, assisting Kaiser Staff with budget development, and working with Kaiser and the selected CM/GC firms to establish the preliminary GMP pricing packages.

Cumming provided schedule review and project statusing for this new 200,000-sq.-ft. hospital campus. Our team initiated and managed a rescheduling and schedule implementation program that resulted in time and cost savings on the project’s first phases, including a central plant, an outpatient surgery center, and required site improvements. We assessed the contractor’s time- and labor-related claims on the project and successfully negotiated settlement of all of those claims on a global basis – extending through the completion of the remaining phases of the project. Additionally, we provided schedule oversight on a multi-story medical office building.

Cumming’s national healthcare team provided comprehensive design phase estimating on behalf of St. Joseph Health System for the new $225 million Northwest Tower at St. Jude Medical Center. Multiple estimates were developed over the course of several months on all costs associated with the 200,000-sq.-ft., four-story building, as well as the associated 14,000-sq.-ft. central plant, connector bridge, and parking garage.

St. Jude’s new Northwest Tower offers one of the most advanced surgical facilities in the region.
