Healthcare owners are operating on tighter margins than ever, and the gap between what they want to build and what the budget allows keeps widening.

That's why more health systems are turning to progressive design-build. It gives owners visibility into cost implications as decisions are made, not after the fact, so projects move with more confidence and less risk.

At Russell, early collaboration between owners, designers, and our team members isn't an add-on. It's how we approach every healthcare project from day one.

We celebrated a ribbon cutting yesterday at Bettendorf Middle School, marking the finish of a summer's worth of hard work by our crews.

The team spent the summer on improvements throughout the building, so students and staff return to a refreshed space this fall. From new finishes to final details, we've been putting in the work behind the scenes while the halls were quiet.

This isn't the finish line though. Our crews will keep the progress going during school breaks and again next summer, so keep an eye out for more upgrades to come.

Quad-City Times Bix 7 weekend may have come and gone, but the energy that filled the streets is hard to forget. Thousands of runners, volunteers and spectators came together for a weekend that showed off what makes this community so special.

We were proud to sponsor Beat the Elite once again, with Jim and Michelle Russell kicking off the race and later welcoming competitors at the finish line. From there, the celebration continued at the post-race party alongside runners and fans.

We’re proud to be part of a community that continues to show up for one another, year after year.

A.Y. McDonald needed a partner who could deliver one of the biggest investments in the company's history: a technically complex, fast-track foundry built while design was still underway.

Our team members planned it, coordinated it daily on site, and delivered it on time and on budget, all while keeping safety and care for people at the center of every decision.

That work has now been recognized beyond the jobsite.

The project has earned an Engineering News-Record Midwest 2026 Best Projects Award of Merit in the Manufacturing category!

Industry recognition is meaningful. The endorsement that counts most comes from the owner who lived the project with us. Watch to hear it straight from A.Y. McDonald's leadership.
