Temecula Valley Hospital

Highly Collaborative Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)

Turner, as part of a joint venture, provided preconstruction and construction services for the Temecula Valley Hospital, a five-story, 140-bed hospital built on 35 acres. The hospital features all private rooms, a 20-bed intensive care unit (ICU), high-tech surgical suites, emergency services, and an advanced electronic clinical information system. The delivery method was a highly collaborative, Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) and promoted the facilitated strategic planning, design, construction, start-up and turnover of the project through the principles of lean construction.

Through lean thinking and acting, the team was able to translate the intent of the contract into a culture of behavior that supported it through every phase of the project. The final result was a hospital built 40% below the average price of hospital construction in California. The collaborative effort also resulted in a 25% decrease in design time from concept to permit and an early completion of work in the field.
