In an environment where "we needed this done yesterday" is a common refrain, solutions that prioritize speed, quality, and flexibility are essential. This presentation explores how integrated design/build delivery, prefabrication, and modular construction are transforming outpatient center construction. Through real-world case studies, we’ll highlight how early alignment on project assumptions, multiple early equipment or scope procurements, and strategic workflows drive faster, more efficient delivery. We’ll explore how leaning into prefabrication and modular construction reduces timelines while maintaining high-quality outcomes and adaptability to evolving healthcare needs. Balancing speed with quality is critical. We’ll share actionable strategies to ensure rapid delivery aligns with patient-centered goals and long-term facility flexibility. Attendees will leave equipped with tools to overcome fast-track project challenges, from early planning to execution, and deliver outpatient centers that meet today’s demands. This session provides architects, engineers, contractors, and owners with insights to rethink delivery strategies and embrace innovation. Find out why we should have been doing this yesterday—and how to make it happen today.Show MoreClick the title to see all detailsShow More
