Major Pharmaceutical Company
RTP, NC

Design / Construction Partnership
MY has had a long-standing design and construction partnership with a major pharmaceutical company since 1990. Over the past 12 years, MY has completed more than 1000 individual building projects with a total value in excess of $84 million for this company. MY was the major pharmaceutical company's Contractor of choice for their design-build partner to provide all design and construction services at the R&D Campus in RTP beginning in 1995, and continues today under a multi-year long term contract.

High-Tech Laboratories

MY meets the challenge of managing the design and construction of 70-100 jobs each year while setting safety achievements, realizing considerable cost-savings, and developing and maintaining ‘fast track’ schedules. Major laboratory types on campus include analytical chemistry, wet chemistry, organic and inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, Instrumentation/analytical labs, computer labs, biochemistry, radioactive research and biohazard facilities, clean room facilities, NMR, x-ray crystallography, electron microscopy, mass spectrometer, and animal holding. Recombinant DNA, bioengineering, sequencing and related lab facilities and support have been constructed as well.


Superior Safety Program

MY implemented a superior safety program that recorded 1.0 million consecutive man-hours without one lost-time injury. This extraordinary record resulted in substantial cost savings and a number of industry awards for both the major pharmaceutical company and MY.


Complex Planning
The massive scope and complexity of the multi-projects required intensive team cooperation and detailed planning. MY fostered a totally integrated, cooperative, team relationship with the major pharmaceutical company, the design-team and the trade contractors. MY’s scheduling expertise, which provided daily computerized construction information on cost, materials, productivity and manpower, kept all team members informed.
