Case Study: Elevating Specialized Care Through Accelerated Design-Build
Context & Services
For the Musculoskeletal Center in Hattiesburg, MS, we served as the primary civil engineering and infrastructure planning partner for a sprawling 13-acre medical campus. Supporting Freese Johnson and Sina Companies, we provided a comprehensive suite of services, including site construction design, hydrology analysis, and ADA compliance. Our role extended beyond traditional design to include utility verification, jurisdictional coordination, and meticulous permit management to ensure this 75,000 SF facility met rigid healthcare standards.
The Unique Solution
Navigating the high-stakes world of healthcare development requires more than technical skill: It demands an advocate who anticipates the financial risks of delay. We implemented a just-in-time design-build paradigm, delivering precise engineering phases only a month ahead of active construction. This required intense multi-disciplinary coordination with MEP and architectural teams to integrate complex medical infrastructure and med-gas requirements without the typical stop-and-start of traditional permitting. By staying steps ahead of the crews on-site, we acted as a true extension of the client’s team, ensuring that every grading slope and utility connection met FGI and ADA precision while maintaining the momentum of a fast-tracked schedule.
Success & Impact
Our agile approach shaved a full year off the standard design and construction timeline. This efficiency allowed the Hattiesburg center to open its doors early and provide orthopedic and sports medicine services to the region’s 23 schools and countless residents improving community health outcomes.
