Advancing System Resilience at Milwaukee Regional Medical Center
Here at Milwaukee Regional Medical Center we have many vendors, but only a couple strategic partners. For us, Ever-Green has been the very definition of strategic partner. They possess what I refer to as strategic empathy. That is, they embrace the strategic initiatives of their clients and provide real tangible value. This has been evident in Ever-Green meeting or exceeding every major milestone of our very complex $250 million central utility plant and distribution project. Time and again our team has given them large, complex goals and each and every time the Ever-Green team has risen to the occasion to achieve them. They understand our world of limited resources and consistently demonstrate an ability to prioritize initiatives and investments based on sound ROI metrics. Ever-Green’s commitment to excellence is evident at all levels of their organization, and their leadership team has been very intentional about creating a culture of accountability. Their integrity is beyond reproach.

With leadership from Ever-Green Energy, MRMC Thermal made additional infrastructure investments that improved the reliability of steam and chilled water service, which are critical to the operation of the hospitals and research facilities on campus.
A new plant was constructed to implement more energy-efficient natural gas operations, which will help moderate or reduce future energy costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, benefiting the medical center organizations and their patients.
Ever-Green provides system operations, maintenance, and management including business development, construction oversight, plant commissioning, system start-up, and water management services. Ever-Green is also developing a utility master plan for the MRMC campus, as it looks to double in size over the next several decades.
The medical center is a consortium of six health care institutions. The campus is home to a Level 1 Adult Trauma Center at a nationally ranked academic medical center and a Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Center at Children’s Wisconsin. The medical center member organizations provide continuum of care rehabilitation services and offer new discoveries and cures to patients throughout the world. Milwaukee Regional Medical Center members share a common mission of excellence in patient care, medical education, life-science research, and community service.
