Aging Infrastructure

Existing building systems were outdated and required complete replacement — uncovering hidden conditions that demanded real-time engineering adjustments.

error
Tight Timeline

A 14-month delivery window with hard completion targets left minimal room for schedule slippage or rework cycles.

Multi-Trade Coordination in Occupied Building
