Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) eliminates the communication void commonplace between construction management and design. According to SGA's VDC services director, Michael Schroeder (right, with Alexandria Real Estate Equities development and construction VP Andy Reinach), VDC has proven to reduce overall schedules by 20%, reduce change orders to less than 1%, increase submittal approvals to 90%, and deliver a better experience for the team. In close collaboration with Turner Construction, SGA is using VDC in cooperation with developer Alexandria Real Estate Equities to create projects, increase predictability and collect high-profile awards. As a result, VDC saves Alexandria time and money, mitigates risk, and delivers innovative progressive building solutions.
Alexandria development and construction VP Andy Reinach and Turner Construction project executive Brian Chase will join SGA’s Michael Schroeder at Bisnow’s 6th Annual Construction and Development event on Nov. 18. At that time, they’ll present a case study of Alexandria’s 50 + 60 Binney St, the mega-project that is the gateway to the Alexandria Center at Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA. The 530k SF mixed-use development employs breakthrough technologies that significantly reduce costs, time and headaches that come from traditional construction methods. Register here for the event.
