S.L. King & Associates, Inc. (SLKA) provided comprehensive MEP design and engineering consulting services for the expansive BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee corporate campus. Located on 12 acres atop Cameron Hill, the 1,000,000 square-foot headquarters features five office buildings and a large integrated parking structure.

Four of the buildings rise five stories tall—each approximately 200,000 square feet—and support employee offices and day-to-day operations. The fifth building, centrally located on the west side of the hill, serves as the campus hub, offering amenities such as a large dining facility, training rooms, and conference space. A 4,500-space parking deck is seamlessly built into the southwest and southern slopes of Cameron Hill to support staff and visitors.

SLKA was entrusted by BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee to deliver MEP design expertise, engineering consultation, and on-site construction management for this high-priority, high-visibility initiative. Leveraging a team of seasoned MEP design professionals, SLKA provided:

  • On-site inspection oversight
  • Construction change management
  • Schedule tracking and coordination
  • Pay application review
  • Quality assurance
  • Facilitation and leadership of contractor progress meetings
  • Owner-contractor liaison support, ensuring seamless communication and execution

This project reflects SLKA's commitment to delivering excellence in large-scale, mission-critical developments through thoughtful design, precise execution, and strategic partnership.
