Keeping the Hackensack University Medical Center at the forefront of patient care

With an increasing need from the community for better, more accessible healthcare, Hackensack University Medical Center set out to transform the academic medical center’s campus into one of the country’s leading acute care facilities. With this in mind, our project management team was selected to help manage the development of the $714 million, 530,000 square foot (SF) Helena Theurer pavilion and 43,300 SF central utility plant.

The new eight-story pavilion spans over 2nd Street. The brick masonry and aluminum panel clad podium portion of the building houses 24 state-of-the-art operating rooms, 72 supporting rooms, and a new central sterile processing for the entire campus. As the owner’s representative for the project, we provided full project management services throughout the project duration, which included management and oversight throughout the conceptual, design, construction, and occupancy phases. Specifically, we managed the development of the project scope, schedule, and budget, the value engineering process and selecting of the project team and contract negotiations. We also developed the permitting strategy, coordinated Authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) approvals, performed constructability reviews, provided construction oversight, and managed occupancy and closeout.

With the project now complete, the hospital will ensure the needs of the community are met—keeping the Hackensack University Medical Center as a leader of patient care today and for years to come.
