Hill International to Provide Owner’s Representative/Project Management Services for HRL Laboratories, LLC
November 12 2020 - 8:00AM
Hill International (NYSE:HIL) (Hill), the global leader in managing
construction risk, announced today that it has been selected to
provide owner’s representative/project management (OR/PM) services
to HRL Laboratories (HRL) overseeing the design and construction of
backup power at HRL’s Malibu headquarters as the owner’s
representative.
High-tech research and development company HRL’s
Malibu campus is comprised of multiple buildings housing office
space, laboratories, and industrial facilities, which need to be
protected against power bumps and outages. “It is important for any
business to maintain operations during power outages,” says Hill
Senior Vice President and Deputy Regional Manager John Skoury, P.E.
“Especially in California, where earthquakes and wildfires can
unexpectedly disrupt power, having an alternative power source is
essential. HRL’s new project will not only help guard against lost
time and money, but also minimize safety hazards in laboratories
during a power failure. Our team looks forward to providing OR/PM
services to deliver the project successfully.”
Hill will provide a variety of OR/PM services
during the project lifecycle. During design, Hill will work closely
with the design team to meet HRL’s requirements and acquire
required permitting from the City of Malibu.
During construction, Hill’s responsibilities
will include creating a risk-management process and project
controls, reviewing and advising on all project plans and
documents, managing project budgets and schedules, and
troubleshooting unexpected problems. Hill will also serve as the
main liaison between HRL and contractors. Especially important
during the COVID-19 pandemic, Hill will help to ensure the safety
of all workers. The project is expected to conclude in 2022.
“We’re thrilled to support HRL Laboratories on
this project,” says Hill Chief Executive Office Raouf Ghali. “We
understand the important research being carried out by the company
and hope that our own contribution allows HRL’s work to proceed
without interruption. We also look forward to supporting any future
project needs HRL may have.”
