Separately funded and owned, but connected projects: 25-bed hospital and Orthopedic and Spine Center to be built on green space site adjacent to existing ThedaCare ambulatory facilities in Appleton, Wisconsin.

As plans were being developed, client requests to cut five months from project schedule

Hplex asked to maintain $144M budget (including FF&E and IT) during and post COVID-19.

Because projects are separate (hospital and Orthopedic and Spine Center), Hplex expertise was needed to guard against co-mingling of projects’ funds to ensure compliance.

Created, then revised project planning and timing, allowing ThedaCare to open five months earlier than initial plan as requested.

Acted as managing member of a newly-formed LLC, owning the Center of Excellence and leasing it to ThedaCare and physician practices; worked closely with ThedaCare to finalize tenant and ownership opportunities for physicians, funding this portion of the project with third party dollars.

Established guardrails and firewalls to prevent co-mingling of funds and created separate and distinct contracts for each of the two projects. Separate funding for the hospital was made possible through tax exempt bonds.

Met budget established by client at project commencement.

Coordinated activation planning with departments, vendors, and construction team to ensure efficient move-in activities for day one patient care.
