For each project, Tracy assembles the greatest team possible and makes use of each person's advantages to deliver Banner Desert Medical Center the best project results. All team members, including Banner leadership, shared philosophies, and objectives for the Women's Tower Expansion. Banner requested input from all project teams as they worked to integrate prefabrication and modular construction on three separate projects to maximize efficiency. Shared contributions from the Architect and Contractor were especially helpful for workflow optimization and timetable integration. The Women's Tower Expansion team was able to communicate and make modifications in real time through the usage of a live Revit platform and early Trade Partner involvement, which reduced waste and allowed for quicker constructability alternatives. The Women's Tower Expansion has benefited from Tracy's leadership, which has also enabled Banner to save $3 million on the project.
