McKenney's relocated existing HVAC equipment for the Northeast Georgia Medical Center expansion project in Braselton, Georgia. Fourteen rooftop fans, an MRI chiller, and two CRAC units needed to be moved to make way for additions to the diagnostic and treatment wing and patient tower. McKenney's developed a detailed plan to relocate the equipment without disrupting patient care, coordinating between contractors and hospital staff. The equipment was successfully relocated allowing the new floors to be built while maintaining hospital services.

1. T
o accommodate expansion of
the clinical and future patient
spaces, McKenney’s relocated
existing equipment for the Northeast Georgia
Medical Center in Braselton, Georgia.
THE CHALLENGE
Fourteen rooftop fans, one MRI chiller, and
two CRAC units serving the base hospital
needed to be relocated to make way for the
addition of one story onto the diagnostic and
treatment wing and two stories onto the patient
tower. All of these construction changes had to
be completed without disrupting patient care
in the live hospital environment.
THE SOLUTION
The McKenney’s team helped develop a
detailed coordination plan for relocating and/
or replacing the equipment, carefully mapping
out every step to ensure success. The plan
kept everyone—the general contractor,
electricians, controls subcontractor, hospital
maintenance and operations staff, as well as
McKenney’s internal sheet metal, HVAC piping
and startup-up/commissioning teams—
involved, synchronized and on task.
THE RESULTS
Northeast Georgia Medical Center was able to
continue providing services to patients during
the equipment relocations, which paved the
way for the build-out of the new floors.
Synchronized for Success
