The $41 million MWCC project is slated to be completed in September 2016. Shawmut's scope of work on the project includes construction of a 44,000 s/f science addition and new greenhouse, as well as a 36,000 s/f renovation to create a 150-seat event space. The team will also relocate student advising services and offices, bathroom upgrades, MEP upgrades, and ADA improvements.
Shawmut used Lean Construction practices during the preconstruction phase to manage design decisions and deliverables and is targeting Massachusetts LEED Plus Silver Certification upon the completion of the project.
