Hammes Healthcare and Greater Baltimore Medical Center celebrate The Promise Project groundbreaking

Milwaukee, WI, September 2, 2021 - Hammes Healthcare, a leading provider of consulting and project delivery services, celebrated the groundbreaking ceremony for The Promise Project at Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC) in Towson, Maryland on Sept. 2.

Hammes is serving as program manager for The Promise Project, which includes a three-story, 117,000-square-foot patient care center, which is an addition to GBMC’s current hospital, as well as the new 78,000-square-foot Sandra R. Berman Pavilion. The addition will feature a new main entry, lobby, three-story atrium, retail pharmacy, café, wellness/conference center, and two medical surgical units with a total of 60 new patient rooms. The Sandra R. Berman Pavilion will become the home to a number of services provided by GBMC’s Sandra and Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute.

Hammes has been working with GBMC since June 2019. Hammes facilitated the Certificate of Need (CON) process with the State of Maryland and developed the budget for the entire program. Hammes also facilitated the procurement of the architectural and construction management teams and oversaw the design process.

“It’s an exciting milestone that we celebrate today with GBMC and our project partners,” said Michael Killian, Hammes Healthcare Regional Vice President. “Our team is deeply invested in and committed to the success of these projects, which will have a tremendous impact on the community.”

The GBMC hospital addition is expected to be completed in fall 2023. The Sandra R. Berman Pavilion is expected to be completed in fall 2024.
