Healthcare
The grand scale and overall complexity of most healthcare projects make design assist and design build the preferred delivery method. When Limbach and LEDS are engaged early in the design phase, they assist by providing costing information, scheduling, and a Target Value Solution approach to engineering. The engineers at LEDS work with the design team to provide alternative approaches that reduce cost and create schedule float without compromising the design intent or performance of the building systems. On larger projects, further benefit is realized as BIM Specialists with Limbach and LEDS add additional value due to the early start to the coordination and planning phase.

Generations of Care Tower at ProMedica
Location: Toledo, OH Delivery Method: Design Assist This 14 floor addition to the existing Promedica facility will be the largest acute Trauma Center in the area. LEDS, along with the Joint Venture team of Dunbar/Limbach, provided Design Assist, BIM modeling and Coordination services throughout the project. LEDS also coordinated the placement of numerous customized Rack Systems (built off-site) which greatly reduced the on-site installation cost along with the increased productivity within a safer working environment.

Boston Medical Center
Location: Boston, MA Delivery Method: Integrated Project Delivery The Boston Medical Center expansion project was performed as an IPD project. LEDS and Limbach assisted the design team early in the project to control cost and improve schedule without compromising the performance of the building systems, which needed to remain in operation during construction.

Tradition Medical Center
Location: Port St. Lucie, FL Delivery Method: Design Assist LEDS and Harper provided design assist support to this project. Early in the design, LEDS engineers and Harper worked with the design team to maximize the use of offsite construction. This was the premier project where horizontal, multi-trade distribution racks were prefabricated. The project was such a success that Harper and LEDS were brought back to work on the vertical expansion of the patient tower.

Riverside Hospital
Location: Riverside, CA Delivery Method: Design Assist Limbach and LEDS supported the design team with early engagement, which included early BIM coordination and layout. To truly solicit engagement from all major trade contractors, the design team set up a collaborative meeting at Limbach’s office in Southern California, which helped to streamline the project.

National Intrepid Center of Excellence
Location: Bethesda, MD Delivery Method: Design Build The Intrepid Center at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center was funded by the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund to serve our wounded veterans. LEDS and Limbach worked with the architect and construction manager to maintain the budget, meet performance goals and design a building which would achieve a LEED Certification.
