Standardization of systems components, off-site prefabrication and simplicity of installation are key components of Lean Construction practices. Hermanson’s fabrication facilities – designed and operated to incorporate Lean practices – fabrications and assembles ductwork, piping and plumbing assemblies to drive Lean Construction.
We start with the concept that all mechanical components are pre-fabricated. Sophisticated and detailed Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) processes integrate all design parameters - dimensional limitations and electrical, communication, fire-life safety and other building systems are integrated. Shop operations support fabricated ductwork, plumbing connections, pipe fittings and assemblies, fixture and equipment connections, pump skids, multi-trade racks as well as fully assembled portions of other trades such as structural steel construction.
All Lean Fabrication centers around the concepts of efficiency, safety, and creativity in meeting the increasingly complex needs of mechanical systems construction.
"Hermanson completed the project on time, within budget and with minimum disruption of the staff. Their planning and execution of the construction was exceptional."
- Terry Williams
"This was a tough project. Compared with other contractors, Hermanson Company was head and shoulders above the rest!"
- Dick Dunham
"I want to share how pleased the University (of Washington) has been with the feedback they have been receiving from many sources about the BIM efforts on this project. It has been garnering a lot of positive attention. I too have been very happy with the effort put forth by your team top to bottom."
- Lowery Pugh, BIM Coordinator
"I talked to the facility manager this morning; he had nothing but compliments for your crew. He said they were professional, kept him updated, and there were no surprises. He also said they can work here any time! Thank you very much!"
