EDUCATION

DEFINING TOMORROW’S CAMPUS

PARTNERING WITH HIGHER EDUCATION AND K-12 INSTITUTIONS OF VARYING COMPLEXITY, WE DELIVER WORLD-CLASS LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS FOR ACADEMIC GROWTH AND EXCELLENCE. 

Capital investment in the education sector comes with challenging budgets as campus planning is tasked with assessing sustainability solutions and the quality of the environment being created for students.

In lieu of this recurring challenge, district schools, universities, and colleges seek a clearer understanding of their proprietorship. This has fostered a growing focus on a masterplan development approach that encompasses all facilities and property owned, resulting in an asset strategy that informs future plans for expansion, renovation, or restoration.

Our academic clients turn to us for the expertise and support to deliver enduring spaces that balance learning opportunities with environmental sustainability – while also being compliant to the evolving needs of students. Therefore, to effectively augment results, green management needs to be factored into not only core business planning and objectives but also into the project controls.

DELIVERING TRANSFORMATIVE RESULTS

At Abbott, we understand the current need for innovation that requires a fresh approach to how facilities are constructed, managed, and operated to attract students and faculty.

With our proven history of offering innovative solutions in the industry, our team has cultivated a mature program management offering, tailored to respond to unique challenges the sector presents. Because of the tightly controlled financing that comes with capital construction in this sector, Abbott places an emphasis on vigilant schedule management that minimizes the interruption of ongoing activities on campus.

“SINCE PROJECTS IN THE ACADEMIC SECTOR OFTEN TAKE PLACE WITHIN AN ACTIVE ENVIRONMENT, ROBUST MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES ARE REQUIRED TO GUARANTEE TIMELY DELIVERY, SMOOTH OPERATION, AND STUDENT SAFETY.”

From ground-up medical research laboratories to historic restoration projects, we create confidence in stakeholders by providing cost certainty and effective risk mitigation, contrived through 40 plus years of experience in the industry.

From project and risk management to asset rationalization, Abbott’s specialist services support both public and private education clients from project inception to completion.
