A Gordian Case Study
James Fallon Elementary School, part of the Wayne Public School District, faced a critical emergency when four large wood trusses above its cafeteria were found to be failing. This forced the cafeteria to close at the start of the school year, requiring students to eat in their classrooms. The school district needed to complete the complex, auditable repairs for an insurance claim as quickly as possible. They turned to vendor Gordian and utilized its ezIQC® solution to streamline the procurement and project management process.
Gordian's ezIQC process enabled a fast-tracked, three-phase project approach that included demolition, structural repairs, and new finishes. This method, combined with value engineering, allowed the repairs to be completed in just three months from the initial scope meeting. The comprehensive documentation provided by Gordian ensured the insurance claim was processed rapidly. The project was finished in time for students to return to a safe and fully operational cafeteria after their winter break.
