Phased Construction and Occupied Site Logistics
Coordinated phased construction minimizing disruption to active operations.
Construction in active facilities requires planning and execution that maintains ongoing operations while completing project work. Industrial operations throughout the DFW Metroplex regularly require expansions, renovations, and upgrades that must proceed alongside continuous business activity. We specialize in phased construction approaches that balance construction progress with operational needs.
Phase planning begins with understanding operational priorities. What areas are critical? When can work occur with least disruption? How can construction support rather than hinder operations? We develop phasing plans that answer these questions, creating construction sequences aligned with operational realities.
Site logistics for occupied facilities differ from new construction. Construction traffic must be separated from operations. Material staging must avoid interference with production or shipping. Noise and dust controls may limit certain activities to specific hours. We address these constraints in construction planning.
Utility work in occupied facilities requires careful coordination. Power shutdowns, water interruptions, and system modifications must be scheduled around operational needs. We plan utility work during low-activity periods and provide temporary systems where needed to maintain operations.
Safety takes on additional dimensions in occupied facilities. Construction workers and facility employees must be protected from each other's activities. Clear boundaries, proper signage, and communication protocols keep everyone safe. We implement safety measures appropriate for each project environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can construction proceed while our facility operates?
Yes, with proper planning. We develop phasing plans that separate construction from operations. Work may proceed in isolated areas, during off-hours, or with protective barriers in place. Specific approaches depend on facility type and project requirements.
How do you minimize disruption to our operations?
Disruption minimization starts with understanding your critical operations and scheduling. We phase work to avoid peak periods, schedule noisy work during low-activity times, and maintain clear access to operational areas. Regular coordination keeps everyone informed.
What if our operational needs change during construction?
Flexibility is built into phased construction. We maintain regular communication to understand changing needs and adjust phasing accordingly. Some changes may affect schedule or cost, but we work to accommodate operational priorities.
How is safety managed with facility employees present?
Construction zones are clearly separated from operational areas. Barriers, signage, and access controls prevent unauthorized entry. Safety briefings communicate protocols to both construction and facility personnel.
Can you work nights and weekends to reduce disruption?
Yes, we can schedule work during off-hours when this reduces operational impact. Shift work adds cost but may be justified by reduced disruption. We evaluate scheduling options during project planning.
