WORKING THROUGH A GLOBAL PANDEMIC TO KEEP HEALTHCARE DEVELOPMENTS ON SCHEDULE

MedCraft continues its work as a trusted partner to health systems nationally. Working collaboratively with Ascension, Medxcel and our project partners, we successfully navigated the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 crisis by keeping the project teams united, focused and on schedule.

Here are a few highlights of our team’s contributions:

• arcDESIGN streamlined design documentation packages and state approvals to meet fast track permitting, GMP and closing processes.
• Landworx Engineering, responsible for site and civil design, leveraged existing relationships with the City of Fishers to obtain approvals even while officials were working remotely.
• Meyer Najem Construction implemented COVID-19 safety protocols at the work site and coordinated closely with city officials and subcontractors to ensure a timely construction start and safe work environment.
• Old National Bank ensured the construction loan closed and funded, just as the banking industry was inundated with PPP loan applications and existing borrower requests.
  MedCraft would like to recognize and say a big thank you to our partners: Ascension, Ascension St. Vincent, Ascension Medical Group, Medxcel, Meyer-Najem Construction, arcDESIGN, Landworx Engineering, Mader Design, OfficeWorks, Harrison Street, and Old National Bank.

Celebrating a Virtual Groundbreaking During COVID-19

Working closely with our partner Ascension, Medxcel Facilities Management and the project team during the coronavirus pandemic, the Ascension St.Vincent Health Medical Office Building in Fishers, Indiana remained on schedule and we recently celebrated a virtual groundbreaking!

“The bright light for me during this unprecedented pandemic was to see that our new building, being developed by MedCraft, stayed on schedule and we could celebrate a virtual ground breaking. We look forward to moving in later this year and hosting a Grand Opening with our patients and staff.” Kay Buckley, Manager for Practice Operations, Ascension Medical Group
