Slide5How MBI can help meet your challenges
What is “modular construction”An alternative, off-site project delivery method used to construct code-compliant buildings in a quality-controlled setting in less time with reduced impact on the environment
Slide6Modular Construction
All of these advantages typically result inCOST SAVINGS for school districts due to a more efficient process, fewer labor hours, & fewer materials wasted
Slide7Process, not Product
Think of modular as a “process” of construction, not a “product.” Using this process, you can build all types of facilities, including…

and permanent campuses
Slide10Advantages of Modular
Shorter Construction SchedulesAbility to deliver to remote locationsMore environmentally friendlyConstruction off site=safer campusQuality controlled construction settingRegional fit, feel and looks to match environment
Slide11Shorter Construction Schedules
Slide12Remote Locations?
We deliver anywhere!
Slide13Environmentally Friendly
Slide14And its not just MBI saying it…
“The life cycle expectancy of modular construction is the same as conventional, and in a world where sustainability is gaining momentum each day, there are also several basic principles intrinsic to the modular construction process that make it more eco-friendly than conventional construction.” American Institute of Architects (AIA) -“External Issues & Trends Affecting Architects, Architectural Firms, and the AIA” -February 2008
