dck worldwideis an equal opportunity employer.

Welcome

As of the publication of this INSITE magazine,

dck worldwide is in the Top 40 of the fastest

growing private companies in Pittsburgh and one

of the largest construction companies in the city.

As you look and read through the coming pages,

you will see how the company has grown and

strengthened its markets throughout the globe.We have significantly expanded in the Caribbean,

working on a number of educational buildings on

different islands for DeVry University, and we

have successfully completed a distressed

hospital project in Tortola. Furthermore,

we are excited to be underway with projects in

Dominica, St. John, and Turks and Caicos.

I am proud to say that we continue to have a strong presence in Guam both in

private and federal work, winning nine awards from the Guam Contractors

Association in 2013. In Hawaii we are working on a high-end mall in the

heart of Honolulu and a very strategic military base on the island, in addition

to our high profile healthcare projects. With the acquisition we made last year

in the western U.S., dckhas been able to secure a number of new projects

within that region, making that transaction a great addition. As you can see,

regions are strategically important to our growth and so are the relationships

we have with our clients.

In the last few years, we have been focused on our clients and their needs.

Listening and providing the building solutions they requirewhether it is

a logistically challenging worksite, a budget that is tight, or identifying funding

solutions through our Capital Solutions groupwe are focused on providing

what the clients envision and building the structure they imagined. Moreimportantly we are happy to go where they take us.

My hope is that as you look through the pages to come, you will see and

read about our clients and their projects and witness our level of commitment.

I think you will also find this with our new website; I invite you to take

a look. Seeing is believingwww.dckww.com.

Project: Cadence at Plaza Centro; Tucson, AZ

Owner: Capstone Development for the University ofArizona

Architect/Engineer: Ankrom Moisan Architects

Project Value: $21.3 million

Completed: August 2013

dck Project Team: Bill Reynolds, Mike Bradley,James Palmer, Mike Morton, Dennis Janes,Rich Kendrick, Jay Wilcox, Kenny Guadiana,Cheryl Iozzio, Linda Suica, Tom Nitta

Cadence at Plaza Centro is a $21.3million design-build project servingUniversity of Arizona students with350,000 SF of student housing andamenities located in the heart ofdowntown Tucson.

Summit dck was identified andshort listed as one of the few generalcontractors in the region capable ofproducing a large-scale project on avery fast-track schedule. dck wasawarded the project and commencedwith the design phase in March 2012,partnering with Ankrom Moisan Ar-chitects and Capstone Developmentto complete the design and securepermits within four months. Con-struction began in July 2012 and wascompleted in 13 months.

The project consists of two buildingsseparated by a main arterial road inthe downtown area. The first build-ing was constructed atop of an exist-ing City of Tucson four-story parkinggarage. The garage was designed andconstructed with future considera-tions for student housing, whichmeant that no structural modifica-tions to the garage structure were re-quired. A three-story wood framedstructure was constructed on the top

deck of the garage, creating the seven-story structure.

The second building was built on aformer Greyhound bus station. Afterremoval of buried footing and stemfrom the old structure, a 22,000 SFpodium was erected as the base forfive stories of wood framing, makingthis building as unique as its counter-part.

Mid-way through the project, Owner-ship decided to incorporate an exten-sive low voltage scope to the projectincluding security, access control,internet, phone, and data. dck wasable to understand the Ownersneeds and design accommodationsfor all added wiring and equipmentincluding MDF and IDF rooms. This$350,000 change was accommodated

with no added time.

The perseverance of the project teamamidst numerous last minutechanges, acute labor shortages anddifficult inspections were admirableand included seven-day work weekstowards the end. Success was exem-plified by this team with their never-give-up attitude regardless of theroadblocks and obstacles placed in

front of them. The project was a suc-cess on all fronts: zero safety inci-dents, owner satisfaction, and onor ahead of time performancewhich produced a lot of happycollege students!

The Queens Medical Center pur-chased this West Oahu hospital fromthe St. Francis Healthcare System ofHawaii in 2012 with plans to investover $70 million in renovations andimprovements to the 17-acre campuswith upgraded technology and surgicalequipment. dck pacific was awarded

this contract in May 2013 to providepreconstruction and construction serv-ices to renovate the five-story hospitaland two floors of the Clinical ServicesCenter building.

The hospital building involveddemolition and removal of oldequipment, and complete renovationof the Emergency Department,which is now three times larger, alongwith the addition of an intensive care

unit as well as diagnostic imagingand womens health services. Alsoupdated were all common areas,nursing stations, and utility andsupply rooms.

PEEBLES HOSPITAL,TORTOLA, BRITISHVIRGIN ISLANDS$40 Million, 6-Story,160,000 SF Renovation

dck completed this $40 million NewPeebles Hospital Internal Fit-OutWorks contract. dck was selected asthe CM at Risk to complete the inte-rior renovation, including MEP and

medical equipment fit-out. dcks re-view of the management approach andmedical equipment fit-out and installa-tion early in project schedule led to ex-pedited delivery.

This six-story hospital (with mechani-cal penthouse) incorporates 168,700SF of internal space with facilities forpatient care, surgery and recovery, andICU. While the building structure wascomplete and the exterior skin mostlycomplete when dck took over, a large

portion of the contract included demo-lition and rework of the MEP and fireprotection systems from a previouscontractor, along with all interior fin-ishes and medical equipment installa-tion.

This project represents dcks ability totake over distressed projects and bringthem back to life and in this case itwas a much-needed resource in thecommunity. Completed: October 2013

ONE GOODPROJECT LEADS TO

ANOTHER

After nine months of design meet-ings, constructability recommenda-tions, and cost estimating withWalgreens, Architects Hawaii, andits consultants, Phase 1 of the newstore began construction. Thisprocess, prior to construction,enabled dck to keep the designwithin the budget and save theowner $4 million. The two-story35,600 SF flagship store and three-and-a-half story attached concreteparking structure is going up on

the busy corner of KeeaumokuStreet and Kapiolani Boulevard inHonolulu, with subsequent phasesthat may include additional parkingand office space on top of existingtower to follow.

The Walgreens team was very happywith the cooperative spirit demon-strated by dck on their Honolulu

store and mentioned the planning ofa new store in West Hollywood, Cal-ifornia. This led to discussions withanother dck team in dcks Westernregion being invited to submit aproposal for the SMB20 Walgreensproject.

dck submitted a price proposal alongwith a detailed project action planand was selected as the general con-tractor for the project. The scopefor the West Hollywood project isvery unique in that it includes a resi-dential component. The project con-sists of a single level, below gradeparking garage with a 14,229 SFWalgreens store and 2,533 SF Wal-greens Up-Market on groundlevel. A podium deck with two lev-els of wood framing will be con-structed above the retail and provide18 residential units and an amenity

area (Skye Park). Two additionalresidential units will be constructedon grade. Walgreens has a co-devel-oper on the West Hollywood project,Pacific Development Partners.Phase I demolition was completedon schedule and the design and per-mitting are being finalized to com-mence Phase 2 and mobilizemid-April.

With other flagships stores and dis-tribution centers in planning stagesfor Walgreens in the U. S. andPuerto Rico, dck worldwide ishopeful on building this relation-ship. This is a perfect example ofteaming resources across the com-pany and targeting a long-termclient.

When Walgreens came into town looking for a design-assist contractor to build their firstflagship store in Hawaii, they visited dcks Hawaii regional office and two other local contractors.

dcks presentation to Walgreens demonstrated an understanding of not only the design-assistprocess, but also how we would assist them in hurdling the challenges of design, permitting,and constructability. This can do attitude impressed the Walgreens representatives, and dckwas selected to provide Pre-construction and Construction Services.

dcks commitment to proj-ect excellence and buildingsolutions has been evidentto our clients, which inthe following two cases,specifically resulted inadditional work.

BANKPACIFIC HEADQUARTERSdck worldwide continued its work

for BankPacific in Guam by provid-ing construction services for thePhase II renovation of its Hagatnaheadquarters. Earlier in 2013, dckcompleted Phase I of the construc-tion. This consisted of a completeinterior and exterior renovation ofthe three-story customer servicesbuildingan annex to BankPacificsmain banking facility.

In conjunction with RIM Architects,dckhas again provided a completeinterior and exterior renovationthistime to BankPacifics main bankingfacility, including a new teller line, newoffices, and floor-to-ceiling windows.Particular emphasis was placed onensuring that the building is highlyenergy efficient, including a highlyreflective silicone roof, a new high-efficient zoned central cooling system,and replacing all the exterior glass withnew energy-efficient insulated glass.

This headquarters project was evenmore challenging since BankPacific didnot want to shut down its customeroperations during the renovation. Thedck crew performed their work atnight so BankPacific could remainopen for normal operations duringthe day.

By providing sound construction prac-tices and great customer service duringPhase I, the decision to use dck for

Phase II was easy for the Owner.

In addition to winning repeat businessfrom this client, dck also won twoawards for Phase I of this project at the2013 Guam Contractors AssociationExcellence in Construction Awards:Renovation - Less than $4 Million anda Special Safety Award.

dcks Guam region is finishing upthis fast-track, design-build PrimaryTreatment Upgrades project in Ha-gatna for the Guam Waterworks Au-thority (GWA). The company waschosen because of its very successfulcompletion of work at the GWAsNorthern District Wastewater Treat-ment Plant, a design-build upgradeproject dck completed in June 2013.

This upgrade project was necessary forthe GWA to consistently comply with

environmental requirements. Whencomplete, the plant will be capable ofminimizing the amount of pollutantsdischarged to open waters. Addition-ally, the improvements will enable it tohandle the expected increase in flowrate due to the planned expansion ofmilitary operations in Guam.

The main challenge for dck wasimplementing the installations whilethe plant was in operation. Extraprecautions had to be maintained toensure that all areas of work were

free from unsafe conditions. Due tothe experience that the project crewhad in the construction of the North-ern District Waste Water TreatmentPlant (also done while the plant wasoperating), the expected challenges inthis installation were not an issue,said Danny Solis, dck Project Manager.

This timeworking directly forprime contractor, GCIFI (GuamCommunity Improvement Founda-tion, Inc.) dck was responsible for:

construction of the ChemicallyEnhanced Primary Treatment(CEPT) and Sludge HandlingSystems

The Transient Wounded Warrior fa-cility is located in Bethesda, Mary-land, at the Walter Reed NationalMilitary Medical Center (WRN-MMC). It includes a seven-storylodge to provide adequate transienthousing to support military person-nel being treated at the WRNMMC

whose severe injuries require an ex-tended recovery/transition period(three to six months on average) be-fore they can be returned to theirunit or released to civilian life. Thelodge, which will be compliant withthe Americans with Disabilities Act,will include 163 studios/suites, of-fices, recreation areas, kitchenettes,community areas, mechanical andequipment spaces, and spaces for re-habilitation. The parking structure

includes 470 stalls. dckbrokeground on this project in July 2012.

Designed to be at least LEED Silvercertified, the Wounded Warrior facil-

ity includes numerous LEED fea-tures, including photovoltaic panelson the roof to generate electricalpower, a solar water heating system,and a green roof space. Currently,finishing activities are in full swing,and dck anticipates turnover of aportion of the lodge in June. Exte-rior site activities are also inprogress. The parking structure,which still needs a few finishingtouches, has already been given tothe owner for his use.

It is a humbling experience just to be on the jobsite, saidone dckemployee who recently visited the site. Just

thinking about what these men have been through andhave sacrificed to serve their country, and what lies aheadfor them, can be both overwhelming and uplifting. It isan honor to be a part of a team that is working to helpimprove the quality of their lives.

arine Corps Air Station(MCAS) Yuma is homeof Marine Fighter AttackSquadron 121, the firstoperational F-35 squadron.

To support their missions, dck/TtECexecuted two concurrent task orderstotaling nearly $164 million: one toconstruct utilities and communica-tions infrastructure improvementsacross MCAS Yuma, and the secondto perform the fast-track construc-tion of two new 55,000 SF aircraft

maintenance hangars to accommo-date five F-35 Joint Strike Fighteraircraft.

The significance of this high-profileproject and the importance of com-pleting the first hangar on time can-not be overstated. It was a toppriority for NAVFAC and U.S. DODofficials. The Commandant of theUSMC was updated on the entireF-35 program by a dedicated computeron his desk. Also, well-publicized

cost issues associated with this newgeneration aircraft mandated that de-livery of the initial aircraft to MCASYuma by the aircraft manufacturerproceed on schedule, and that nodelays and excuses, including failureto have the hangar on-line, wouldbe accepted.

The key to this projects success wasthe development of a cooperative,team-based approach, which was crit-ical to meeting the aggressive sched-

ule and key milestones defined by theMarine Corps Headquarters and U.S.DOD. Under normal conditions, thisaircraft hangar would take over 18months to build; however, dck ac-complished this taskcompletion ofthe first hangarin only ninemonths to accommodate the deliveryand installation of high tech com-puter equipment for the F-35. Thisand other critical schedule mile-stones were achieved because of astrong partnering foundation agreed

to by all stakeholders in an initialpartnering workshop. Through con-stant communication and teamworkwith all parties involved, dck wasable to overcome numerous chal-lenges, including:

working in an operating base withsix flight squadrons with over2,000 Marines,

being adjacent to an operating air-field with aircraft continuously

taking off and landing and pre-venting construction debris thatcould damage aircraft engines,

working amicably with contractorson five ongoing major capital con-struction projects on base,

working around multiple combatoperations training events.

Also essential were the weekly andas-needed coordination meetingsconducted with the Resident Officer

in Charge of Construction, Site Activation Task Force, design teams, another prime construction contractor

An initial partnering session wasattended by 62 people, including thefollowing entities: dck, base personnel, NAVFAC Southwest, the designers, Arizona Public Services, andother contractor representativesworking on the base. The groupestablished goals that involvedschedule, documentation, safety,

teamwork, and impact to the baseand prepared a partnering charter.

This charter and the entire partner-ing process established key projectobjectives and aligned all stakehold-ers to achieving those objectives,which included delivering a hangarfacility meeting technical require-ments, maintaining the critical proj-ect schedule, and working as aunified team to resolve challengesthat arose as a result of the com-

pressed schedules for design and construction. This alignment allowedmany challenges to be resolvedquickly and efficiently by front-linepersonnel and other more significanmatters to be evaluated collectivelyby stakeholder representativesthrough a timely, well-definedprocess. The ability to react quicklyand efficiently allowed high-cost construction activities to progress withminimal down time and rework. Italso enabled dck to interact with

Pretty good; but how good can itget? Taubman is planning new re-tail centers in Florida, Tennessee,and California. As the relationshipbetween our two companies contin-ues to grow, allowing employees to

build trust, learn working styles,and work in the best interests ofeach other and the projects, itcan only get better from here.Taubman has very high standardsfor safety, project controls, andproject management as does dck.As we work together, we all learnand grow as a team, which allowsus to continually improve ourefficiency and processes to use onthe next project, says FrankFalciani, Taubmans Account

The dck-ecc pacific guam team,our joint venture with ECC, hasbeen hard at work since the Summer

of 2012 with the building of a new$30 million air freight terminalcomplex at Andersen Air Force Basein Guam. This design-bid-buildcontract, awarded by NAVFACMarianas, is a firm-fixed-price taskorder under our previously awardedDB MACC (design-build multipleaward construction contract.)

The project involves constructionof a 32,640-SF single-story building,

another 13,720-SF building, fireprotection and other systems, park-ing, landscaping, truck-loading area,and more than 7,000 square feet ofalterations to an existing building.

Another building was demolished tomake way for the new terminal.

One of the more complex aspects ofthis project is the MEC/UXOormunitions, explosives of concern/unexploded ordnancework that isnecessary on the site. The projectteam encountered over 35,000potential MEC/UXO anomalieswhen only 5,600 were originallyestimated for the project site,said dck-ecc Project ManagerMike Stout. dck-ecc partnered withNAVFAC Marianas to come up

with a more efficient process ofunearthing, and removing theanomalies. The MEC work wascompleted in May 2014, andNAVFAC saved over $500,000

At Honolulu International Airport,one of the busiest airports in the

U.S., dck pacific is constructingthree contracts totaling over $85million. The projects mark thebeginning of the State of HawaiisNew Day Work Projects toimprove airport facilities to createa secure, efficient, and safe environ-ment for the millions of people thatpass through the complex, and toprovide jobs to stimulate the Stateseconomy. At its peak, more than225 workers will man these projects.

Encompassing an area of 27.66acres, the three projects are locatedadjacent to the Inter-Island Termi-nal. All work is being performedsimultaneously by dck. Construc-tion began in August 2013 with thedemolition of the former Aloha

Air cargo building involving

the removal of approximately240,000 CF of building structureand foundation, and relocation ofan existing Sprung (tension fabric)Structure. At the same time, heavy

equipment began the sitework forthe $6 million New Employee

Parking Lot involving the demoli-tion and removal of existing paving,with construction of new concreteand pervious concrete pavement tofollow. When completed in 2014,the new employee parking lot willhave the capacity to accommodateover 700 vehicles.

The largest contract is the design-build construction of a 270,000

SF facility for Hawaiian

Airlines (HA), the largest Hawaii-

based airline. The fabric structure isthe largest Rubb USA has designedand built. It will house either fiveHawaiian Inter-Island jets simulta-neously or two Inter-Island jets andthe Airbus A350. The $77 millionmaintenance and cargo facility con-solidates HAs cargo operations andaircraft maintenance and integratessupport offices and customer serv-ice. Relocating HAs operations tothis new building allows for thedemolition of their existing facilities

and makes room for the wideningof two taxi lanes to accommodatelarger planes. dck is teamed withRIM Architects on this design-buildproject.

A POWERFUL COMBINATION OF HOTELSPRODUCES SOME FRIENDLY COMPETITION

his Marine Avenue hotel campuscombines two of the most power-ful hotel brands with a 147-roomHilton Garden Inn and a 172-roomResidence Inn by Marriott. The overallsite was designed for three hotels, anddck is currently in the early stages ofpre-construction on the third hotel,which will be a Homewood Suites.

Project construction began in April2013 in North Redondo Beach, Cali-fornia, where the citys edge meets the405 Freeway at Marine Avenue. The

Marine Avenue Hotels were turnedover to the owner in May 2014.

Two different hotel flags on one sitecreated a unique challenge for thisproject, affecting both the pre-con-struction and construction phases,said David Burton, dckVice Presi-dent/Project Executive. The pre-con-struction period was over a year long,and the dck team coordinated withthe architect to make sure that bothHilton and Marriott standards were

being met in the design as well as thatany value engineering options were incompliance with franchise standards.The lengthy pre-construction pre-sented modifications and upgrades tothe individual programs for both fran-chises. Additionally, due to the exten-sive pre-construction duration, dckspre-construction team was constantlyupdating and monitoring costs due toprice escalation at the time with mar-ket conditions continually in a state offlux.

Another unique aspect of this projectis that both hotels have prototype cus-tom designs with personalized locationaccents, incorporating the RedondoBeach pier, beaches, sunsets, etc., inthe artwork.

During the construction phase, thechallenge comes with working notonly with the Hilton and Marriottfranchise reps but the developer aswell, who is our client. The projectteam says there was a light-hearted

and friendly competition betweenthe two franchises to see which hotelprogressed faster!
