unparalleled experience

In the fall of 2018, Aegis was engaged to provide an independent third-party opinion on the impacts and delays that occurred on the Renovation of the Miami Beach Convention Center. During the course of this project, there were several scope additions and design modifications, which extended the period of performance. These impacts were further exacerbated by shut down periods, which restricted access to the project site.

Aegis evaluated numerous contemporaneous issues, reviewed the project record, conducted interviews, and performed a forensic schedule analysis, which identified the causes of critical delay on the project. At the conclusion of its analysis, Aegis produced an expert report of its conclusions and later provided expert testimony during litigation.

The North Contract in Biloxi, MS, required overhauling and replacing water, storm, sewer lines, approximately 35 miles of paving, and associated landscaping. The project was separated into eight areas and affected nearly every road north of the central east-west rail line in the city. The project was affected by unforeseen impacts, causing a critical path delay almost immediately after issuing the Notice to Proceed. Aegis used industry standard methodologies to perform the critical path delay analysis, loss-of-productivity calculation, and draft an expert report. Construction was completed in January 2021.

414 Light Street is a 44-floor luxury apartment building in the Inner Harbor of Baltimore, Maryland. Questar Builders, Inc., was the developer based on the cutting-edge design of Solomon Cordwell Buenz. Aegis worked on behalf of the owner to defend against cost and delay claims from the general contractor. In addition, Aegis provided claim support services during the project's construction, including affirmative delay analyses and the rebuttal of an opposing expert’s schedule delay analysis. In October 2019, the delay and costs were settled. Aegis was instrumental in facilitating a settlement without a protracted litigation process.

Aegis provided project controls services for these unique public partnership (P3) stormwater programs that Corvias will use with local municipalities. These programs usually require the teams to develop their own projects within the program, so the projects must be tracked from the planning phase through design, procurement, and construction. Aegis developed robust project and program tracking metrics, which are then published as KPIs within a dashboard that can be private or public-facing.

Three buildings totaling approximately 600,000 square feet, featuring 36-foot clearing heights and 250 parking spaces for cars and another 39 for trailers.

The Aegis Companies worked with Whiting-Turner to create and manage the schedule for the University of Delaware’s STAR Campus six-story, 208,000 sf Biopharmaceutical Innovation Center.
The building accommodates around 300 researchers’ labs and offices, a bioimaging center with state-of-the-art microscopes, a DNA sequencing center, an automated bioreactor for cultivating cells, a training lab for K-12 teachers, and a model pharmaceutical factory.

The project included a coarse screen facility, influent pumping station, fine screen facility, grit removal facility, wet weather storage tanks, electrical substations, and structures to incorporate the facility with the existing wastewater treatment plant. The new coarse screen facility and influent pumping station features four 200 MGD coarse screens, four 70,000 GPM influent pumps and motors, four 60,000 GPM influent pumps and motors, and associated piping, valves, and flow meters. The fine screen facility includes six fine screens and two sets of solids handling equipment. The grit removal facility includes eight traveling bridge grit removal systems, grit removal pumps, grit slurry troughs, grit classifiers, and solids handling equipment.

A grit blower building, sanitary pumping station, two 18-million-gallon wet weather storage tanks, and a storage tank valve vault were constructed, along with the installation of buried piping systems and the completion of backfill and surface restoration following each installation. Modifications to the main electrical substation and installation of odor control systems, stormwater management facilities, and erosion and sediment controls were also included in the scope of work. Improvements to existing structures included the dewatering pump station and fine screen facility, modifications to the main electrical substation, selective demolition, and site work.

The ECB2 project, a showcase piece for East Campus at Fort Meade, is considered a weapons system in defense of our nation and will support the next generation of signal intelligence and information assurance. The project comprises a seven-story operations facility of approximately 843,000 gross square feet for 3,100+ personnel, an expanded parking structure, and an associated generator yard.

This 2.7-acre site includes 1.18 million square feet of space, with nearly 900 residential units and 40,000 square feet of retail space. Upon completion, the site will also have a school, a 26,00-square-foot park, a fire station, and underground parking.

Port Covington's economic development project, anchored by the Under Armour global headquarters, will cover 260 acres and three miles of Chesapeake Bay waterfront near Interstate 95, the Port of Baltimore, and the Fort McHenry National Monument. The redevelopment will transform the former heavy industrial area into a thriving, dynamic neighborhood featuring 1.5 million square feet of destination, attraction, entertainment, and specialty retail buildings for $1.1 billion for local, state-, and privately-owned infrastructure.

One Light Street is a 776,000 square foot, 28-story mixed-use building in downtown Baltimore and the first mixed-use skyscraper in the city. The building features 9 levels of office space, 10 levels of residential space totaling 280 units, 7 levels of above grade parking, 2 levels of below grade parking, and ground level retail. In addition to the base building project, the General Contractor also built out the interior office space for M&T Bank, the anchor tenant of the building, as well the residential units.

Located in NE Philadelphia, the Samuel S. Baxter WWTP provides drinking water to Philadelphia from the Delaware River. This project, funded by the Philadelphia Water Department, consisted of constructing new 40-foot below-grade precast basins capable of holding 10 million gallons of future drinking water. Aegis collaborated with the DJK scheduling team to help manage the overall construction schedule and identify key handoffs between the two contractors.
