Press Release: Hologic and Timberline Construction Honored with 2025 CMAA-NE Project Achievement Award

Canton, MA – Timberline Construction Corporation (Timberline) is pleased to announce the recognition of Hologic’s manufacturing and R&D expansion in Newark, Delaware. The team accepted the award during the Construction Management Association of America New England Chapter (CMAA-NE) 2025 Project Achievement Awards on June 4th in Boston.

The 115,000-square-foot project included an extensive interior fit-out and the ground-up construction of a new warehouse, all of which were executed while Hologic’s critical operations – including labs, clean rooms and manufacturing lines – remained fully active. Timberline’s meticulous coordination, strategic phasing and expertise in fast-paced environments were key to the project’s successful delivery.

“Timberline delivered a complex project with precision and care, overcoming schedule constraints and construction challenges without disrupting our ongoing operations,” said Craig Bernier, Head of Global Real Estate and Facilities at Hologic. “The relocation of critical equipment, coupled with energy-efficient upgrades, has created a facility that supports both our growth and sustainability goals. We’re thrilled to see them recognized with this award—they’ve truly earned it.”

The facility has already demonstrated long-term benefits since its completion, including a 38% reduction in electrical energy use despite an 11% increase in overall space, thanks to upgraded mechanical systems and thoughtful building envelope enhancements.

“This project reflects the very best of our team’s commitment to quality, innovation and partnership,” said Jason Emord, Vice President and Project Executive at Timberline. “Our dedicated in-house team, along with our design partners, Ci Design and Vanderweil Engineers, worked together to deliver a facility we are all proud of.”

This recognition marks another milestone in Timberline’s continued work with clients advancing healthcare, research and innovation. To learn more about this project, please visit our website.
