Advocate BroMenn Medical Center Lab Relocation Project - Normal, IL

In order to upgrade their facility, incorporate state-of-the-art equipment and increase the amount of testing that can be performed for remote clients, Advocate BroMenn decided to relocate their existing medical laboratories to a new and larger location in the lower level of their new Patient Tower. P.J. Hoerr was involved from the beginning of design development to prepare cost estimates, explore design alternatives and assist in the design process. Upon completion of the construction documents, P.J. Hoerr bid the project, obtained building permits and will be managing the construction.

P.J. Hoerr also incorporated Building Information Modeling (BIM) into the construction process to coordinate very dense mechanical and electrical systems. P.J. Hoerr managed the BIM process, performed “Clash Detection” and coordinated the resolution of the final mechanical layout. The project is scheduled for completion in December of 2014.

Today found installation of HVAC, electrical and plumbing underway. Next week metal studs and drywall will start.
