Bent County Healthcare Center Courtyard Renovation
Bent County Healthcare Center partnered with Reliant Construction to efficiently deliver a high-quality courtyard renovation by leveraging Bent County’s Sourcewell purchasing cooperative. This approach eliminated the time and expense associated with a traditional design-bid-build process. By utilizing Sourcewell, Bent County was able to accelerate the project from kickoff, ensure full procurement compliance, and secure competitively awarded, firm-fixed pricing—maximizing value and quality while reducing administrative burden and costs.
This streamlined process allowed the team to focus on creating a functional, accessible, and welcoming outdoor space for residents and staff. The project was highly collaborative between Bent County and the construction team, ensuring the County maintained full control throughout the entire construction process.
