 “The Innova Group helped University Medical Center (UMC) define their major capital projects, they worked effectively with our executive and governance leadership, and then they managed UMC’s most ambitious project to completion. At every step and challenge, they managed our risk with remarkable foresight and with a clarity of purpose to get UMC the best project possible.”         — Steve Brigham, Director, Capital Planning and Projects, University of Arizona Medical Center

Based on their prior experience with The Innova Group, UMC engaged Innova to assure successful delivery of their complicated, messy, and intrusive Emergency Department and Bed Tower Expansion Project. Innova functioned as the “owner’s representative,” providing budget and schedule maintenance through coordination of all active parties, including the design team, city utilities, construction manager, and equipment vendors.  UMC relied on The Innova Group to manage and coordinate everything – down to planning and staging the donor unveiling party.

  • Architecture and engineering services
  • Construction contract
  • Disruption and phasing
  • ICRA and ILSM

Along with, management and oversight of:
