Children’s Mercy Research Tower

P1 Group was selected for the mechanical scope of the two-part Children’s Mercy Hospital Research Tower project.

Phase 1 of the project required the addition of 2,000 tons of cooling. During Phase 1, the chilled water piping was modified to turn two chilled water plants into one plant. This was completed

Phase 2 of the project is the construction of the new nine-story research tower along with a new auditorium. The first two floors serve as office space, conference rooms, and other administrative spaces. Floors three and four are all laboratory space. The project is scheduled to come in on time and on or under budget.
