The Business Challenge: University Park Tech Center V was originally designed as a spec project in the University Park in San Antonio, Texas. This was a sequel to the first four buildings built by CMC which are now fully leased and sold. Prior to breaking ground, the entire building was leased by a San Antonio-based medical company, KCI (Kinetic Concepts, Inc.).

In order to meet KCI’s schedule, CMC implemented its fast track construction methodology and finished the entire 80,431 square foot building, along with the interior finish-out in less than 6 months. The facility is 75% office/call center and 25% research and development.

With the success of University Park V and CMC’s efficiency, KCI made the decision of moving their IT operations into the to-be-built University Park VI. Building VI will begin construction in early 2005 and be ready for occupancy in July, 2005.
