In 2017, Martin, White & Griffis participated in the design of The Banner University Medical Center Tower (BUMCT). BUMCT is a new 9-story clinical tower for the region’s only academic medical center which replaces an aging portion of the existing hospital and updates and expands operating rooms and elevates the patient experience with all-private patient rooms.  The tower includes 226 patient beds and 22 operating rooms as well as a new mail entrance.

The project team received the 2020 ENR Southwest Best Projects Award which honors the best construction projects and the companies that designed and built them. BUMCT will be honored at the 2020 ENR Best Projects Awards ceremony on November 11,2020 at Renaissance Phoenix Downtown Hotel.
