Developed Women’s Imaging Center. Project required presentation of a pro forma to the Columbia/HCA corporate office.

Oversaw the construction of a $9.3 million, 50,000 square foot, medical office building. Project required coordination of construction engineers, architects and corporate office and interaction with state and local government. The building would be used as office space for approximately 30 physicians and contain a laboratory, basic imaging equipment, and cardiac testing facilities. Results: Project on target for completion and on budget.
Oversaw $1.3 million laboratory expansion. The hospital laboratory was required by an accrediting body to expand its physical plant due to lack of space in the department. This required the hospital to acquire $1.3 million in capital from the corporate office for a project that would not produce any additional return. The project also required the coordinating of construction while not impeding work flow. Results: Project completed within budget parameters and regulations of accrediting body were satisfied.
