Designed with a focus on sustainability, the facility achieved LEED Gold certification, reflecting its commitment to energy efficiency, performance, and long-term operational value.
This was not a typical healthcare project. The scale, system complexity, and critical nature of the environment required seamless integration of power, controls, and life-safety systems across a high-performance medical facility where reliability is essential.
HVE was responsible for installing the main power distribution system, supporting continuous operation of critical healthcare infrastructure.
Scope included:
In addition to power systems, HVE installed building automation and medical gas control systems, integrating mechanical and life-safety infrastructure across the facility.
Systems included:
The project required precise coordination across multiple systems, ensuring that electrical, mechanical, and control systems operated as a unified platform to support patient care, safety, and operational reliability.
HVE’s work enabled a high-performance healthcare environment built to meet the demands of advanced medical treatment, while supporting long-term flexibility and system resilience.
The Dan and Betty Kahn Health Care Pavilion now stands as a critical component of Michigan Medicine’s future, delivering expanded capacity, enhanced clinical capabilities, and a fully integrated infrastructure designed for continuous, reliable operation.
