Norton Medical Plaza – July 2006
Major goal for Norton Healthcare
Not Your Typical Hospital
Did not want to build a new “old” hospital
Had to be different
– Feedback from several sources
Clean slate / green field
Most up-to-date practices
Latest technologies
– Information systems
– Medical equipment
Hospitals Aren’t Typical Construction
More complex
Very schedule driven
High degree of integration with technology
Infection control issues
Moisture/water control during construction
State and regulatory requirements
Budget constraints
New hospitals not built every day
Project Management Challenges
Not to exceed budget - $146 M
Accelerated implementation schedule
High risk
High expectations
Program not a Project
Definition of a program
– “Group of related projects managed in a
coordinated way to obtain benefits and control not
available from managing them individually
