Trust, built. Trust, built. Trust, built. Trust, built. Trust, built. As the first HITT project with Twitch and recently expanding our experience into the creative project space, HITT felt the need to provide an exceptional project and client experience. With high expectations and the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, the HITT team maintained constant communication with all stakeholders and coordinated with owner vendors to ensure proper installation of the many unique project elements. Overcoming these challenges as a team created a strong relationship with the client and we have continued our relationship with our next project together in Irvine, California. THE HITT EXPERIENCE Solutions Solutions Solutions Solutions Solutions Unique Challenges, Smart Solutions Ambitious projects require carefully constructed solutions Challenge The CRAC unit lead times were 35 weeks longer than what is typically expected due to supply chain delays. Solution We installed temporary MovinCool coolers to start the MDF room and begin data transfer and set-up while waiting on the CRAC unit delivery. Challenge This project occurred in an occupied building with neighbors above and below the construction floor, requiring the team to work around constraints for construction hours and noise to minimize disruption to adjacent tenants. Solution We developed relationships with the tenants above and below the project to create phasing plans and ensure a successful occupied build-out. Challenge We could not core into the post-tension slab or touch the post tension cables. Solution We used X-ray scanning and partnered with structural engineers to receive final approval for coring locations.
