Seattle, June 3, 2026 — H&M Harborview JV, LLC (H&M), a joint venture between
McKinstry and Hermanson, has been selected as the mechanical and plumbing
design-build partner for Harborview Medical Center’s facility and infrastructure
improvements through the Harborview Bond Program. This transformational bond
initiative will support Harborview’s mission as the Pacific Northwest’s top Level I adult
and pediatric trauma center.
The project is part of Harborview’s long-term investment in modernizing and expanding
its campus to better serve King County’s most vulnerable populations while advancing
long-term goals for resilience, sustainability and equity. Working as OneTeam, H&M is
responsible for the delivery of high-performance mechanical and plumbing systems for
the future patient care tower, essential service renovations to support the new tower and
associated infrastructure upgrades—all within an active, 24/7 health care environment.
“H&M brings unmatched experience on the Harborview campus, paired with a design-
build approach that prioritizes collaboration, cost certainty and operational continuity,”
said Paul Robinett, president of Hermanson Company LLC and principal in charge for
H&M Harborview JV. “Our team members have deep ties to this community, which
makes this project especially meaningful.”
With a combined history of nearly 400 projects across the Harborview campus, H&M’s
team brings extensive institutional knowledge of existing infrastructure, utilities and
operational requirements. That experience will inform early design decisions, system
performance strategies, and phased construction planning to minimize disruptions to
patient care.
“Our role is about more than delivering mechanical systems—it’s about being a trusted
partner to Harborview’s facilities and clinical and operations teams,” McKinstry
Executive Vice President Mark Jonson said. “We’re proud to contribute innovative,
low-carbon and maintainable solutions that support Harborview’s lifesaving work today
and for generations to come.”
The Harborview Bond Program is being delivered in close collaboration with
Mortenson, Perkins & Will, UW Medicine and King County, supported by H&M’s
Seattle-based preconstruction team and local fabrication facilities.
“This project reflects a shared commitment to the community and to doing the work the
right way,” Robinett added. “We are honored to help advance Harborview’s legacy of
care.”
