Built with tilt-up construction

The exterior will feature formed recesses, textured form liner and Tex-Cote finishes, creating a modern aesthetic that complements the region’s natural landscape. Additionally, 1024�˹��’s Self-Perform team is fabricating and installing the building’s millwork to support an efficient delivery.

Expanding specialty care access

Once complete, the facility will centralize a broad range of outpatient services at PIH Health Whittier Hospital, streamlining access to specialties, diagnostics and lab services for patients across Southern California.

“Today’s topping out ceremony represents more than construction progress — it reflects our continued commitment to meeting the healthcare needs of our growing community,” said Andrew Zwers, President, PIH Health Physicians. “We are grateful for our partnership with the City of Whittier, The 1024�˹�� Company and all those helping bring this vision to life. This new facility will expand access to high-quality primary and specialty care, ensuring patients can receive the services they need close to home.”

With the structure now complete, the team will shift focus to interior buildout and MEP installation. 1024�˹�� will continue working closely with PIH Health and campus stakeholders to maintain safe, uninterrupted operations throughout construction.

The facility is on track to open in 2027.

boldt — Tue, 09 Jun 2026 13:52:32 +0000

The 1024�˹�� Group is pleased to announce the appointment of Stacy Robben to The 1024�˹�� Group Board of Directors.

Robben, MHA, FSMPS, CPSM, LEED® AP, will serve The 1024�˹�� Group Board of Directors for a term through May 2028. The appointment became official at the Board Meeting on April 23 following approval by 1024�˹��’s ESOP Trustee, GreatBanc Trust Company.

The appointment allows 1024�˹�� to continue benefiting from Robben’s perspective and counsel beyond her planned year-end retirement while further strengthening the Board of Directors with deep institutional knowledge and industry expertise.

She currently serves as the Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President for The 1024�˹�� Group.

1024�˹�� Honored With The Daily Reporter’s Top Projects Awards

boldt — Thu, 21 May 2026 18:12:55 +0000

The Daily Reporter’s 2026 Top Projects Awards recently recognized 1024�˹��’s Charter Steel — Rolling Mill CCW Improvements project in Saukville, Wis., and Children’s Wisconsin Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) project in Milwaukee. These recognitions highlight the strength of collaboration, innovation and execution across complex environments.

The Charter Steel project delivered major infrastructure improvements in one of the most challenging settings possible: a fully operational steel mill. Improvements included modernizing critical systems without a single hour of downtime, a 1,423 SF addition for new filtration equipment, a 12,658 SF concrete drive and scale pit and comprehensive upgrades to the plant’s contact cooling water system. Working adjacent to active billet storage and live truck routes, the team relied heavily on advanced planning and technology to execute safely and efficiently. Additionally, nearly half the work was self-performed, including carpentry, steel and precast erection, rigging and a 600-cubic-yard concrete pour.

1024�˹��’s work on Children’s Wisconsin Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) represents another example of delivering critical infrastructure under demanding conditions.

Serving as construction manager, the team completed the 28,090 SF expansion and renovation while the hospital remained fully operational. The project increased capacity from 32 to 44 beds, helping to meet growing patient needs without disrupting care. Construction began during the COVID-19 pandemic and unfolded amid additional challenges, including high patient census levels, supply chain disruptions and community impacts following the Waukesha Christmas Parade tragedy. The work took place within an existing hospital wing — above an inpatient unit and below active operating rooms — requiring precise phasing and daily coordination to maintain bed availability.

To navigate these complexities, the team used laser scanning, OpenSpace documentation and virtual design and construction tools to connect two buildings with differing floor elevations.

This success was the result of strong collaboration with project partners, including Kahler Slater and GRAEF, whose expertise helped to address unforeseen structural conditions uncovered during demolition.

These awards reflect more than project outcomes; they recognize the teams who plan, adapt and deliver under challenging conditions. From industrial modernization to healthcare expansion, both projects demonstrate 1024�˹��’s commitment to thoughtful execution, safety and partnership.

The 1024�˹�� Company Expands Apprenticeship Program in Oklahoma

boldt — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 12:10:00 +0000

OKLAHOMA CITY (April 30, 2026) — The 1024�˹�� Company, in partnership with Construct My Future and Great Plains Technology Center, welcomed apprentices this semester to expand career opportunities for Oklahoma youth while addressing the construction industry’s labor shortage.

As highlighted by , the industry faced a labor shortage of approximately half a million workers in 2025. The challenge is further intensified by an aging workforce, with 41% of workers projected to retire by 2031. In response, 1024�˹�� is investing in long-term solutions that prepare the next generation of skilled professionals.

Catherine Myers is a senior at Moore High School who was introduced to 1024�˹�� through Construct My Future, a program that connects students’ coursework with hands-on experience in the construction industry to support career exploration and networking. This school year, Catherine contributed to the Mid-Del Technology Center’s LPN and health careers program renovation in Midwest City, Okla.

“During my internship at 1024�˹��, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to experience the full lifecycle of a construction project,” said Myers. “Seeing the before, during and after of a site showed me just how much depth and detail goes into every build.”

Catherine Myers, far left, contributed to the Mid-Del Technology Center’s LPN and health careers program renovation.

Gabriel Sanchez is a student at Great Plains Technology Center and is working in the field with different trade specialists and the project team at 1024�˹��. His work supports the construction of the Memorial Health of Tillman County Critical Access Hospital in Frederick, Okla.

“I came in as just a youth apprentice, not really knowing what I was doing or where I was headed, but this job has changed me a lot. I’ve learned more than I expected, and my boss has really helped me grow not just at work, but as a person,” said Sanchez. “I’ve learned how to stay focused, work hard and take pride in what I do. I’m not just here to get by; I actually want to stick with this, keep getting better, and one day turn it into something big.”

Chesley Graham, Gabriel’s employment advisor at the Great Plains Technology Center, added that this partnership marks the center’s first youth apprenticeship in its history.

“We couldn’t be prouder of Gabriel and the opportunity he has earned to gain firsthand experience in the construction industry. This apprenticeship allows him to expand upon the solid foundation built at the Great Plains, an experience that is truly invaluable. The relationships he is cultivating, from mentorship to lasting professional connections, will serve him for a lifetime. Gabriel holds the honor of being Great Plains’ very first youth apprentice, and it is our sincere hope that he paves the way for many more to follow,” Graham said.

Gabriel Sanchez, a student at Great Plains Technology Center, receives on-site experience through 1024�˹��’s apprenticeship program.

Rural projects can also face more acutely. In response, 1024�˹��’s community partnerships are helping build a stronger workforce pipeline through apprenticeships, particularly in communities outside the Oklahoma City metro area. By connecting young adults to hands-on training and skilled construction careers, these partnerships can help build a sustainable pipeline of skilled professionals to deliver critical infrastructure projects across Oklahoma.

“This is part of our commitment to building and investing in people, not just projects,” said Tyler Bolt, construction operations manager at 1024�˹��. “Through this mentorship, we hope to show students what the industry and work are really like, so they can hopefully find a place within it that suits them.”

The 1024�˹�� Youth Apprenticeship Program is designed with long-term growth in mind. Field apprentices have the opportunity to transfer hours to a union apprenticeship, while office apprentices can transition to a co-op or internship while they earn an undergraduate degree.
