One of the plum jobs of the year was awarded Wednesday evening. Carnegie Mellon selected Jendoco Construction as the contractor for its $60 million Nano-Bio-EnergyTechnologies Building. The project is still in the early design stages & will be in design almost all of 2012, with work starting in early 2013. CMU is committed to doing the job from start to finish in BIM & in a collaborative way. Should be interesting.

Another job that UPMC is seeking a construction mgr./contractor for during design is its new energy plant to be located at the UPMC Mercy campus along Boulevard of Allies. The completed project is expected to be nearly $50 million. The contractors competing are Mascaro, Massaro, Mosites, PJ Dick & Rycon.
