Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction served as a key subcontractor for earthwork and utilities for the construction of a new 270-acre mission critical data center campus. The firm’s participation during design added value to the project by allowing constructability enhancements to be incorporated before construction began. Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction’s estimators supported the project team’s target value design goal by providing detailed and transparent cost estimates to increase cost certainty as design progressed, and coordinated with the design team on a daily basis to evaluate and price alternatives for utilities, earthwork, and structures. Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction’s modeling efforts were instrumental in helping the project team quickly vet design alternatives based on cost, constructability, and phasing; and reduced the earthwork costs by balancing earthwork at the site, reducing import material, and reducing blasting.
