The Design-Build Institute of America awarded the 2021 National Award of Merit in the Aviation category to the Nashville International Airport Concourse D and Terminal Wings project. The BNA Concourse D and Terminal Wings project set a new standard for progressive design-build. In just 29 months, the design and construction of this 302,400 sf project— which includes 240,000 sf of new work and renovation of 93,000 SF in the existing active terminal—were completed. Due to the unanticipated 15% increase in passengers per year, the team incorporated over $70 million of additional scope to adjust to this growth without affecting passengers, airport tenants, or the schedule. The team successfully relocated every airline’s ticketing operation and TSA security screening without interrupting a single flight. The team and stakeholders colocated to efficiently incorporate the changing scope of the project while ensuring adherence to design intent and the original BNA Vision. The design-build team succeeded due to the level of trust between partners and the ability to be flexible to the continual project changes.
