"I have the unbelievable privilege of working full time as the Project Liaison representing the scientists and administration for the OHSU Knight Cancer Research Building. We have adopted the Integrated Project Delivery model and Andersen has been a driving factor in this new atmosphere that would be threatening to most construction companies. A deep trust and respect has developed not just on our close team, but spread throughout the Knight Institute Directors and OHSU executives we collaborate with. Andersen’s value is astronomical. The team has worked tirelessly to understand our needs through user workshops, lab tours, and conversations about the changing world of research. It is amazing that we are within 1% of budget well into construction and finding additional savings and efficiencies every day in the field in a very competitive building market. Every single Andersen employee that I’ve “lived with” over the last two years has been positive, efficient, engaged and a joy to work with. These attitudes and the behaviors mentioned above are contagious and have benefitted not just the project but the entire Knight Institute as we consider how we want to behave moving into our beautiful new building, currently right on schedule."
