Integrated BIM (Building Information Modeling) and Program Controls for a New Healthcare Campus - Case Study of Program Delivery Technologies for the New Parkland Hospital Campus, Dallas

Please join Patrick Casey, Director Design & Construction, Replacement Hospital Program and Shelly Sipes, PMP, Eastern Regional Manager, Critigen

In this session we will review an active case study of the integrated Program Controls Management (PCM) system developed for Parkland Dallas' New Hospital and Campus program. The system utilizes several best-in-class tools to reduce risk and ensure successful on-schedule, on-budget delivery of Parkland’s $1.27 billion replacement program. This program features the construction of a 1.9 million SF full service Acute Care Hospital; 380,000 SF Outpatient Clinic; 275,000 SF Office Center; parking for 6,000 vehicles; central utility plant; and other support facilities to achieve a new healthcare campus.

The presentation will show how the Parkland owner has taken charge to demand a high level of collaboration and visualization for the program. The PCM system leverages several project management tools including BIM as part of the integrated technology suite to enable construction controls processes; reduce conflicts, changes and rework during construction; provide more accurate estimates and coordinate construction scheduling. The presentation will highlight productivity benefits realized through innovative use of off-the-shelf software in an integrated collaboration framework.
