decentralized domestic water
system at a maximum-security

d istribution piping. The facility remained

active throughout the project, requiring
detailed planning, maximum prefabrication,
and minimal disruptions to water service.
THE SOLUTION
The McKenneys team leveraged its knowledge of correctional facility operations, along
with its turnkey design/build delivery methods
to meet NORESCOs ROI requirements.
McKenneys also conducted detailed site

surveys, built full-scale mock-ups, maximized

off-site prefabrications, and minimized
outages to reduce operational disruptions.
THE RESULTS
Precise planning, prefabrication and onsite
coordination minimized installation time.
Overall, McKenneys was able to develop the
ECM and meet the ROI goals of NORESCO
while replacing both the hot and cold domestic water systems with no service disruption.
