Fast-tracked schedule will deliver STEM facility.
DonahueFavret was selected as CMAR after a competitive qualifications-based selection process to begin an approximate 300-day-long preconstruction process with the owner and design team. This project consists of demolition of Caddo Hall and the construction of new 72,000 SF multi-story classroom and administrative building at Northwestern State University. The building will consist of multi-purpose classrooms, teaching labs, simulation clinics, administrative offices, student collaboration spaces, and support areas. Teaching labs include a nursing skills lab with 10 beds. The simulation/clinic area will include a birthind suite, pediatric suite, and med surg suite, as well as an anethesiology sim lab and a social work clinic.
The pre-existing building on site, Caddo Hall, has been demolished. The project is currently under construction after our Preconstruction Team established the project’s GMP, having successfully navigated through current inflation issues, delivery challenges, and labor shortages. The project is on schedule for completion in Spring 2025.
