Challenge
The University of Washington Medical Center sought to expand outpatient services through a developer-led project while maintaining strict oversight of cost, schedule, and design objectives. Balancing the interests of the University and development team required careful coordination throughout planning and construction. The project also incorporated a unique financing structure designed to support long-term ownership goals while minimizing immediate financial impacts. Maintaining alignment among stakeholders while preserving project momentum was critical to success.
Solution
We served as owner representative and advisor throughout development, helping protect the University’s interests while facilitating efficient decision-making. Our team participated in weekly project coordination, reviewed design and construction progress, negotiated key agreements, and monitored project costs and schedule performance. We also supported implementation of a creative financing strategy that aligned with the University’s long-term objectives. Consistent oversight and communication helped maintain accountability across all project participants.
Outcome & Impact
The completed facility expanded the University of Washington Medical Center’s outpatient clinical, laboratory, and administrative capabilities within a modern healthcare environment. Through disciplined oversight and stakeholder coordination, the project maintained alignment with the University’s financial and operational goals. The innovative financing structure provided a pathway to eventual ownership while reducing near-term financial burden. The University of Washington Medical Center gained a strategically delivered facility that supports long-term healthcare growth and patient access.
