Cal OSHPD Fast FREER Program


Are small projects giving you a big headache?

Agonizingly slow? Design fees cost more than the work itself? We can help with a fast turn-around, cost-effective package especially designed to expedite FREER approvals without sacrificing quality. We know how frustrating it can be to get a minor remodel from the idea stage to occupancy. Standards keep getting tighter, yet with managed care, you need to move quicker than ever, and still keep costs under control. That's why we developed a computerized approach to FREER documentation that cuts weeks off the project approval process with proven details, slashes design fees, and keeps simple tasks simple!

Small projects like room by room remodeling, minor departmental reshuffling, and equipment installations can absorb an astounding quantity of resources, even if you can do the work with in-house forces. --- And even if you don't have to go through a full OSHPD approval cycle.

As soon as the work might affect life safety, or requires even minor structural supports and bracing, OSHPD will require an architect to prepare and sign the plans before your FREER package is even submitted to your Area Director. In practice, if the work affects walls, doors, permanently installed equipment, or cabinets, you're going to need a formal set of plans.

We are medical project specialists. In our CAD system, we have an extensive library of practical, OSHPD approved solutions for most common hospital remodeling needs. These can be edited and customized easily, for specific requirements. Do you have special standards you have adopted for your institution? We'll incorporate them for all your projects. And we've had our engineers adopt a compatible approach.

Instead of waiting for weeks, you will have approvable documents ready for submittal to your Area Director within a matter of days. Any plancheck revisions will be handled in 24 hours.

Wondering how we can possibly compete with locals? Just ask San Antonio Community Hospital. Ask Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center. Ask IPSA Medical Group. We're only two hours away, and we have been delighting Southern California hospitals and physicians with imaginative, cost-conscious design and superior service, since 1990.

Our secret is: low overhead, high technology, superior organization, and direct, hands-on principal involvement. You will meet with a senior design principal who knows medical facilities, OSHPD, and construction practices. Instead of handing off the work to a junior draftsman, he will personally prepare your documents with our highly customized AutoCAD design system. The work is done and delivered in less time than other firms would need just to explain the project to their staff.

Is it true that he who proves trustworthy in small matters will be trusted in great? Give us a try on your next FREER project, and you'll soon want us to do larger work as well.

Our Southern California projects cover the full spectrum: one room remodels and interior signage updates, physician suites, diagnostic imaging (MRI and CAT scan), to complete new facilities of 237,000 SF, with a $18,000,000 construction cost.

When you need to re-engineer your clinical procedures for managed care, or consolidate physician practices in a new facility, we'll be ready to provide comprehensive planning, design, and development services --- even CAD/CAFM solutions for facility management and control of leasehold suites.
