This document discusses a modular construction project called "Chill" that was completed successfully to address scheduling concerns for a larger project. The Chemours company was initially concerned about working with a modular contractor for various reasons relating to space, access, and construction. However, Koch Modular Process Systems was able to address all of Chemours' concerns through their modular design. This included removing temporary steel supports after installation, minimizing interior bracing, and ensuring proper access, egress, and safety features. As a result, the modular facility was delivered ahead of schedule and under budget compared to traditional construction. Chemours was so satisfied that they hired Koch Modular for two additional projects.

2. Recent Modularization Example for Schedule
Critical Project – “Chill”
Background
• Late addition to the main, larger project, already in progress, with very
aggressive/business critical schedule
• Start of foundation work tied to air permit receipt
• Due to permit timing, stick build would result in 6 to 8 month start up
delay of main project
• Elected to utilize modularization to allow fabrication to begin prior to
permit receipt and foundation completion
• Benefit to business – Significant savings in lost revenue!

3. Chemours’ “Fears”/Concerns with
Modularization
1. Had never worked with a module company that performed the
process engineering as well as the production design and
engineering (had previous experience with module fabricators).
2. Concerned that the modular facility would not have sufficient space
for operability and maintainability including access to process
equipment. Previous truckable module facility at the site was
extremely cramped.
3. Wanted the ground floor to be concrete and free of any equipment
support steel, i.e. appear as though it was stick built.
4. Concerned that interior cross bracing, on each individual module,
would interfere with access and movement within the completed
structure.
5. Wanted access and egress to be available between all modules and
at all floor levels and wanted two means of egress from the structure.

Benefits of Modular Construction
November 14, 2018 6
Shorter Time to Market: Months, not Years, from PO to delivery of modular
process units

34. Final Result
• Project was very successful!
• Turned over this facility well in advance of the completion
of the main facility and achieved some savings over stick
build.
• Koch Modular was able to satisfy all of our concerns and
met their commitments.
• Based on this success, we are using them on two other
projects!
