January 07 2020 - 8:00PM
Hill International (NYSE:HIL), the global leader in managing
construction risk, announced today that it has been selected by the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology Investment Management Company
(MITIMCo) to provide quality control (QC) management services for
the U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Volpe Exchange
project. Volpe is a federal fee-for-service research and innovation
center in the U.S. DOT.
Hill will provide QC services for the
construction of the state-of-the-art John A. Volpe National
Transportation Systems Center at 220 Binney Street in Kendall
Square, Cambridge, MA. The transportation technologies research
facility will occupy approximately four acres of an existing
parking lot at the corner of Binney Street and the Loughrey Walkway
(at 6th Street).
“We look forward to supporting MIT in the
oversight of stakeholder quality requirements,” said Ian Parks,
Hill International Senior Project Manager. “This will lead to the
elimination of added expense to MIT, minimal punch lists and
warranty calls, and a high-performing building.”
Hill will be working on-site for MIT to help
ensure the construction of the building meets all quality standards
set in the designer’s documents and the construction company’s
contract. This project will begin the important redevelopment of
public spaces near and surrounding the new building.
“This unique public-private partnership between
the U.S. government and MIT is exciting for us to be a part of,”
said Raouf Ghali, Hill International Chief Executive Officer. “We
have helped the General Services Administration deliver successful
projects in almost every region in the U.S., but this is our first
in New England. We are proud to support this region through our
government work.”
