How to get work on it

  1. Construction is expected to start in summer 2027, so trade packages will likely be bid in late 2026 and the first half of 2027.
  2. Contact the firms that built this hospital's last two projects, named on this page. Health systems often return to builders who already know the building, and those firms keep subcontractor lists.
  3. Hospital work inside an open building usually requires infection-control (ICRA) training and healthcare experience. Have your certifications, safety record (EMR) and similar past work ready.
  4. Get certified as a Virginia small, women- or minority-owned business (SWaM) if you qualify, and bid the public work in the Northern Neck listed below.
