New York City

At the beginning of the crisis, our team at Unity mobilized electricians to help increase capacity for patient intensive care for two hospitals in NYC. At Coler Hospital on Roosevelt Island and North Central Bronx Hospital, Unity is ensuring the newly adapted space is powered and set up for ICU patient care, which includes enabling the use of ventilator equipment.

Our Donnelly Mechanical team is installing oxygen lines to 475 more beds in the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens that has been converted into a temporary hospital to meet the needs for overflow hospital space in treating the coronavirus. Find out more.

Donnelly Mechanical is doing similar work at the Brooklyn Navy Yard installing oxygen lines for up to 500 beds. Find out More.

Our Unity Team is completing electrical configuration work at Lincoln Hospital in the South of Bronx while it triples the number of intensive care beds. As the only public hospital in the South Bronx, Lincoln Hospital is dramatically expanding its intensive care unit space from 34 beds to more than 140 beds to accommodate coronavirus patients. Find out more.

Michigan

Our Conti team helped Ford Motor Company to set up a production line to manufacture life-saving ventilators. Joining the autoworkers, a team of electrical and mechanical workers from our contracting company, Conti, helped Ford Motor Company prepare its production line in Ypsilanti, Michigan for manufacturing 50,000 ventilators within 100 days, and up to 30,000 per month thereafter. Indicon, also part of ENGIE, supplied needed components and engineering expertise. Find out more.
 

Indiana

Our Conti team is involved in an Emergency Ventilator Project for General Motors (GM). A team of electrical and mechanical workers from our contracting company, Conti, provides resources to convert an existing General Motors facility in Kokomo, Indiana to produce 200,000 life-saving respirators. General Motors has identified the process plan by working with an existing respirator manufacturer, Ventec Life Systems (GM’s facility and process is expected to increase output 14x versus that facility, comparatively). Conti’s work includes facility upgrades to provide a “clean room” environment for production and installation of specialty equipment and tooling to perform the tasks. Find out more.
