Helm Group Receives Accolades For Recent Projects

Congratulations to SMACNA Greater Chicago member Helm Group, who recently earned the designation of ENR’s Top Specialty Contractor for 2022!

One of the projects Helm served as HVAC contractor on was the Joan and Paul Rubschlager Building at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. Completed in 2022, the Rubschlager Building is a center for cancer and neuroscience care. The $450 million building includes a 10-story, 480,000-sq-ft, $32 million outpatient care center with diagnostic imaging, radiation therapy, infusion therapy and integrative medicine. The project also included an adjacent six-story, 900-space parking facility.

Another major undertaking was the approximately 500-acre DeKalb Data Center, a LEED Gold Certified project that will set the standard for data centers across the country. Helm’s scope of work began with strong collaboration early in the design phase. At 2,300,000 square feet and a tight production schedule, VDC/BIM became a top priority. Throughout the project which included 300,000 feet of piping and 1,200,000 pounds of ductwork, Helm performed mechanical, plumbing and other specialty services.

Congratulations to the team at Helm Group on their recent industry recognition!
