Details
In a third of kind project, General Motors contracted North American Dismantling through its construction managers, National Industrial Services, Inc. to complete the demolition of approximately 4,000,000 sf of existing body shop and salvaging $800,000 worth of equipment that had been previously sold in negotiated sales.

NADC completed two similar projects for NISI and GM in a year and a half period. The first being the demolition of the 400 GMT Body Shop in Ft. Wayne, Indiana; the second being the demolition and dismantling of the 400 GMT Body Shop in Janesville, Wisconsin. Again, NADC was responsible for all mechanical and electrical disconnects, environmental cleaning and rigging, loading and scheduling transportation of the salvaged equipment.

Although General Motors had scheduled this project for a four-week period, NADC completed its work in fifteen calendar days without any additional cost to the owner. This fast tracked schedule allowed the owner to accelerate its schedule for the installation of its new facilities.

Also included in North American Dismantling's scope-of-work was the backfilling and concrete replacement in the pit areas created as a result of the demolition activities. As with the previous two projects, this project was completed ahead of the proposed schedule with limited change orders and without interference to plant production.
