Terracon launches healthcare sector

Olathe, Kan. — Terracon announced the formal launch of its healthcare sector. Decades of experience in healthcare facilities has led Terracon to organize its services around the needs of thousands of healthcare clients nationwide.

“Healthcare is a local business. Terracon is rooted in the communities where we live and work, but we also have a national footprint that positions us to assist our clients wherever and whenever they need us,” said Laura Reinbold, P.E., Terracon national director of healthcare. “Our clients serve the most vulnerable populations, and they can rely on us to be an experienced, nimble partner.”

In 2017, Terracon completed more than 3,000 healthcare projects, generating $23 million in revenue. Projects included improvements and compliance for existing facilities, as well as consulting for new facilities.
