How Soon Do You Need It?
Your Facilities Up and Running 30%-45% Sooner with Modular!
From small health clinics, to larger micro-hospitals, down time can be a big factor in long-term profitability. Our Design-Build-Deploy℠ process saves time by having your facilities up-and-running, and profitable, sooner than traditional site-built facilities.*
The adage that “time is money” applies to any business. Manufacturing of modular buildings occurs simultaneously with site-preparation. Weather delays are no longer a significant factor. The delivery of materials occurs once work is set to begin on-site. When careful planning is exercised on the front end, there’s less likelihood of change orders during construction, which significantly delay your timeline and increase costs. The chart below explains how a modular solution can have you up and running sooner than traditional site-built construction:
Real Cost Savings Over Traditional Construction
Ellis Medical & Dental Clinics, Micro-hospitals, and Health-related facilities become a vital link to our rural communities. With the documented decline in rural hospital counts across the nation due to state and federal budget cuts, a Modular Healthcare approach becomes ever more viable. The cost-savings by using Modular construction can help bridge the gap between “having” and “not having” rural community healthcare facilities and services provided to an underserved population.
Whether rural or urban, the cost to design and construct a modular medical office is approximately $105 to $115 per square foot—which is about 55% of the typical cost to build the same facility on site using traditional construction methods**. Save those dollars for your operating budget once your facility is open.
Primary savings derived from:
- Less overall cost per square foot than site-built construction
- Increased revenue from facilities being completed and operational sooner compared
to the longer schedules for site-built construction
- Reduced length of construction loan and associated finance charges.
*According to the American Institute of Architects and the Modular Building Institute, the 30%-45% time savings range sited here is pretty typical of possible time savings on your project. It must be said however, that every project is unique, with its own set of specifications, requirements and circumstances that may cause delays. Factors such as transport, terrain, location, change orders, permitting, and project requirements, all play a part in construction timelines.
