DESIGN-BUILD, CONSTRUCT SICU AND RENOVATE OR
CLIENT: VA-CFM
LOCATION: Oklahoma City, OK
PROJECT STATUS: In Progress (Mobilized Augut 26, 2024)
PURPOSE:
Construct a new Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU) and renovate existing space for a new Operating Room (OR) suite and Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) within an active VA Medical Center.
Modernize infrastructure including elevators, mechanical and electrical systems, and building envelopes to support expanded clinical services and patient care capacity.
Richard is delivering a 66,800 SF design-build project involving both renovation and new construction in a previously abandoned space, transforming the 7th and 8th floors into advanced surgical and critical care areas. The scope includes the addition of a new elevator, modernization of four existing elevators, building envelope upgrades, and installation of two 1 MW generators. Close coordination with the VA has been critical due to the project’s adjacency to an active OR suite, requiring phased execution and minimal disruption to hospital operations. This is VA’s largest design-build project of this type to date.
