The world of life-saving research is constantly evolving—and so are its facilities. Life Sciences labs support the men and women working towards critical medical advancements every day, and we’re honored to help build healthier lives.

Govan Brown brings highly specialized, quality construction management experience to demanding and complex life sciences and biotech facilities projects. We approach these projects from a systems perspective, identifying building components that offer the best value, efficiency, scalability, and capability to meet current needs with the potential to evolve with advancements in technology.

Building these forward-thinking facilities is a complex process. Between equipment selection, coordination and arrangement, whether programming critical systems for clean rooms or ensuring BSL containment compliance, we understand the controls needed outstanding outcomes in complex environments. We also know from experience that building value and flexibility into your space is just as important as staying on schedule and within budget. To make sure you get the most out of your space, we approach these projects from a systems perspective and our experts partner with you to decide what may be the best solutions for your critical facility.

We understand the safety and quality control standards that these types of facilities require, and we build to cGMP and other standards you define so that your research is protected—even when a global pandemic hits. COVID-19 has introduced unprecedented construction safety challenges and our organization’s industry-leading site safety protocols have allowed our critical projects to continue to progress as safely as possible. Our safety record is far better than the industry average; our number of project hours with no incidents has earned our organization commendations from both OSHA and Life Science clients.

With our passion, expertise, and proven safety record, your improved environment will flexibly scale and evolve with this ever and quickly advancing industry.
