Post contract award review of low bids revealed many incomplete scopes. To ensure compliance with strict LDS standards, the project was re-bid to qualified subcontractors familiar with LDS work.

During construction, Hennessy performed supplemental concrete work as needed so as to maintain the project schedule and quality of workmanship. Out-of-state vendor material and owner furnishings required careful planning, storage and recruitment of qualified installers. Out-of-state subcontractor licensing issues were mitigated by Hennessy’s relationships with local subcontractors.  This project allowed Hennessy the opportunity to prove our ability at all levels to maintain high standards and strict compliance to contract requirements.

A unique center dedicated to assisting families assimilate back into society after suffering life-altering misfortunes, this complex has 19 housing units,  administrative and evaluation offices, and a chapel.

The building is constructed of concrete masonry units with brick cladding and precast slabs at the second floor level. Building systems include a mini-boiler with recirculating hot water. Other features include an outdoor courtyard and custom wrought iron fence with masonry columns.

The project scope includes both preconstruction services and phased construction for a new 35,800 sf museum addition, utilizing a steel frame with architectural precast cladding and high-end interior finishes. Construction of a 5,600 connector conservatory with marble floors and a  30’ high glass curtain wall and impact-resistant skylight system tie the new addition to the existing museum.

Renovations to the existing museum include installation of new fire sprinkler, fire alarm and security systems throughout, new 2,500 sf commercial kitchen and selective interior renovations.
