The challenge

What was at stake.

Seating, concourses and the video board had to be replaced between the last event in spring and the first game in fall. The arena also hosted summer events that could not move.

Our role

What we did.

Beck Franklin's role: phasing and progress reporting. We advise and measure; the contractor builds.

01

Two-season plan

We split the work into two off-seasons and scheduled each backward from the first game.

02

Summer events

Summer events were built into the schedule as constraints with their own setup and teardown.

03

Weekly reports

The athletic department received a weekly progress report during each off-season.

04

Long-lead items

Seating and video equipment were ordered against the schedule, with factory dates tracked.
