Lillibridge expands program management practice

New Hires Enhance Breadth of Service

CHICAGO, JUN-28, 2006 — Todd W. Lillibridge, chairman and chief executive officer of Lillibridge, today announced the addition of both James A. Young III, and Kevin C. Kirkhart, to its acute care Program Management practice. Jim and Kevin will join a growing group of industry-leading program managers led by vice president Roger Becker. Mr. Young will also serve as vice president, while Kevin will act as senior project manager.

Mr. Young most recently served as vice president and central region healthcare  practice leader for Jones Lang LaSalle, where he led its national healthcare facility consulting practice. Jim is thoroughly skilled and adept in all aspects of healthcare facility planning, design and construction, strategic team creation and leadership, process design, risk and outcome management. Throughout his 25-year career, he has amassed a total healthcare project portfolio approaching $4.5 billion. His list of clients includes Children's Memorial Hospital (Chicago, IL), Clarian Health (Indianapolis, IN), Detroit Medical Center (Detroit, MI) and Northeast Georgia Health System (Gainesville, GA).

"Lillibridge is a well-known, trusted brand within the healthcare industry," explains Young. "I am thrilled to be a part of such a dynamic, forward thinking firm, and believe that we will continue to be on the leading edge of service delivery and facility solution thinking."

Mr. Kirkhart has over 23 years of administrative and supervisory experience over projects of varying size and scope — from small-scale construction, renovation and sitework to extensive hospital, higher education and power station development. He has administered multi-campus and multi-facility maintenance programs as an engineer, contractor, and owner's representative — resulting in a thorough understanding of the many complexities associated with project construction.

Most recently, Kevin worked with Duke University Medical Center in Durham, NC as assistant director, facility planning design and construction. Prior to that, from 1999 through 2005, he acted as senior program manager / director of vendor relations for Bovis Lend Lease in Raleigh, NC.

"Jim and Kevin bring a considerable wealth of unique talent to our team," explained
Todd W. Lillibridge. "They are fantastic additions to our growing acute care program management practice."
