CG SCHMIDT TO MODERNIZE MONROE CLINIC

CG Schmidt was recently awarded the construction management services contract for Monroe Clinic's modernization and renovation building plan. The project will be built in Monroe, Wisconsin on the existing campus and managed out of CG Schmidt's Madison office, which is led by division manager, Greg Oelerich.

Monroe Clinic's master facility plan includes a $50-60 million building project that will connect the existing hospital and clinic building. The master plan also includes renovation and modernization of space within the hospital. In addition, the project will consolidate space for a number of programs, including digestive health, surgery, family birth, and heart health centers. The goal of the project is to help Monroe Clinic continue to provide the highest standards in health care.

"We are pleased to provide our statewide healthcare construction expertise to a new client focused on the most innovative ways to help the patients they treat and the communities they serve," said Dan Davis, CG Schmidt's Senior Vice President of Healthcare Construction.

Davis also commented that these projects will kickoff operations for CG Schmidt's new Madison office. "This is an exciting time for
CG Schmidt. Our efforts to bring sophisticated pre-construction services to clients and communities all over Wisconsin are coming to fruition."

Monroe Clinic's conceptual plan is anticipated to continue into 2007, with construction beginning in late 2008 or early 2009. Renovations and modernization of the existing facility will continue through 2010.

Monroe Clinic's modernization and renovation plan is based on a community health needs assessment, in which Monroe Clinic analyzed their patients' and communities' needs now and in the future. Monroe Clinic developed this new facility plan to solidify their commitment to the clients they serve in southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. The design includes the latest advances in evidence-based design, patient safety, and green building principles.

CG Schmidt also recently won the contract for Monroe Clinic's new branch clinic in the village of Albany, Wisconsin. The project will be approximately 5,000-square-feet and includes sustainable building standards. The new clinic is in the final design phase and is scheduled for occupancy in early 2008.
