Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta North Druid Hills campus provides a transformative level of care for patients, community, and state Consistently ranked as one of the nation’s leading pediatric healthcare systems, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta is a place that families across Georgia and the United States rely on for advanced pediatric care. Managing more than one million patient visits each year, Children’s is one of America’s largest pediatric clinical care providers and the only freestanding pediatric healthcare system in the state of Georgia.

To carry out its vision to do everything possible to make anything possible for kids, Children’s needed to respond to the growing demand for access to specialized pediatric care. The result is the new North Druid Hills campus, a 78-acre space that will be transformative for Children’s patients, their community, and the state as a whole.

The campus includes Arthur M. Blank Hospital, the attached South Tower and the Center for Advanced Pediatrics and staff support center.

The hospital is a 19-story, twomillion-square-foot facility with 446 patient beds, each with its own video conferencing system, and more than 20 acres of outside green space to promote physical

and mental wellness. The facility even has 90 robots with dedicated elevators to facilitate materials movement within the building.

For almost 10 years, our team collaborated with Children's in the design and implementation of its technology systems and solutions for the new campus. Our scope included technology visioning, systems design, implementation/ integration coordination, and overall program management.

We worked rigorously to complete the implementation of the technology systems before the first patient arrived at the hospital in the fall of 2024.

The campus design includes integrated devices, location awareness tools, video, and patient engagement technology, all of which aid clinicians in making better decisions and providing a great patient experience.

The innovative campus will improve clinical outcomes and support clinicians in delivering specialty care to kids today and for generations to come.

Kaiser Permanente Santa Rosa Medical Office Building Our sustainability-first approach helped make this California the first LEED zero energy certified healthcare facility in the USA We provided engineering and consulting services for this three-story healthcare facility in southern California. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, it is the first medical office building to be LEED Zero Energy certified in the country.

Through our team’s energy modeling efforts, the photovoltaic energy produced and captured on-site exceeds the energy used during full occupancy without emitting greenhouse gases. Since the building’s operations are allelectric, it is also Net Zero Carbon.

The building includes 95 exam rooms, eight procedure rooms, a healthy living and technology center, and facilities for primary care, including family medicine, health education, gynecology, supporting imaging, laboratory, and pharmacy units. It also has an on-site café, 497 parking spaces, and more than a dozen electric vehicle charging stations.

By using thermodynamically zoned heat pumps, we eliminated large amounts of pipes, saving one million dollars in HVAC construction costs. Other sustainability measures that we put in place include electrochromic glazed glass and building orientation optimization.

The sustainable design includes a 29,000-square-foot photovoltaic canopy that doubles as an architectural rooftop feature, natural ventilation, green rooftop areas, and spandrel glazing to minimize solar heat gain. The facility’s water-saving features include drought-tolerant landscaping with native plants watered by weather-based drip irrigation, low-flow plumbing fixtures, and on-site treatment and infiltration of stormwater.

Collaboration and prefabrication were key in this design-assist delivery. Our team coordinated with the contractors during the design phase to provide fully-coordinated construction documents, which eliminated shop drawings and expedited construction.

The facility has a central plaza that allows people to move between the nearby shopping center and a residential neighborhood to the west.
