WHY CONCORD?

A Partner Who Understands Healthcare Construction

Objective guidance. Cost clarity. Informed decision-making. Collaboration-driven. Results-oriented.

Healthcare capital projects carry a level of complexity few other industries face. Every renovation, expansion, or new build has to work around active patient care, strict regulatory requirements, and equipment that cannot sit idle for long. When something goes wrong on a hospital construction site, it affects more than a budget or a schedule. It affects patients and staff.

That is where Concord comes in. Since 1996, we have partnered with hospitals, health systems, and academic medical centers across the country to manage capital projects from concept to creation. Our team handles owner’s representation, cost estimating, commissioning, medical equipment planning, and more.

Healthcare project types we support:

  • Hospital expansions and renovations
  • Emergency department construction and renovation
  • Outpatient and ambulatory care centers
  • Academic medical centers and teaching hospitals
  • Children’s hospitals
  • Integrated and community health campuses
  • Master planning for healthcare systems
  • Technology and infrastructure upgrades in occupied facilities
Concord has partnered with many hospitals, health systems, and academic medical centers across the country to manage capital projects from concept to creation. Here are some of our healthcare projects.

Healthcare Construction FAQs

An owner’s representative acts as the healthcare system’s advocate, overseeing the project from inception to closeout, including budget and schedule management, risk mitigation, and coordination among architects, contractors, and other stakeholders. Unlike other members of the project team, an owner’s rep’s only priority is executing the owner’s goals, which is why Concord aims to be an extension of your team, not an outside consultant.

Fees vary based on the size and complexity of the project, the level of effort required, such as meeting frequency and onsite presence, and the specific scope of services. Owner’s representative fees are typically structured as a percentage of the total project or construction budget. For large capital projects with construction costs over $5 million, fees typically range from 1 to 3 percent on a sliding scale.

Yes. Many of Concord’s healthcare projects involve renovations and upgrades inside hospitals and health systems that remain open throughout construction. We coordinate closely with hospital leadership to phase the work and minimize disruption, so patient care and daily operations can continue without interruption.

Yes. Concord provides program management for multi-site health systems, coordinating capital priorities and budgets across campuses rather than treating each project in isolation.

Concord’s healthcare portfolio includes community hospitals, academic medical centers, children’s hospitals, emergency departments, and outpatient and ambulatory care centers.

Medical equipment planning is the process of selecting and integrating equipment so a facility has the right technology in the right place at the right time. Without it, hospitals risk technology crowding, budget overruns, and delays that can affect patient care and operational efficiency.

Concord’s process moves through seven phases: inventory management, needs assessment, budget planning, equipment selection, procurement, move management, and final installation, keeping equipment decisions aligned with the construction schedule at every step.

Commissioning verifies that a building’s systems, including mechanical, electrical, fire safety, and building envelope, are installed and performing as designed. This matters most in facilities like hospitals that require continuous operation and high reliability, where skipping this step can lead to higher operating costs, equipment failure, or safety issues.
