Throughout 2003, Performance has completed numerous projects for FMC Energy Systems Inc. Building additions, expansions, and extensive concrete paving repairs have been completed or are underway.

Texas Medical Center
Tropical Storm Allison struck on June 8, 2001, with little warning, drenching the Houston area with torrential rains that resulted in widespread flooding. The renowned Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world, was severely damaged by the flood waters. Preliminary damage estimates were projected to be substantial.

On June 10^th W. Michael Bell was asked to lead the remediation effort on the Memorial Herman Professional Building and Parking Garage. Emergency plans were established and priority lists were released by the Texas Medical Center. Under the direction of Mr. Bell and with the help of top quality sub contractors, The Memorial Herman Professional Building and Parking Garage were reopened ahead of schedule.

The damage was repaired and the facility resumed full operations within six weeks following the storm. Mr. Bell accomplished this incredible feat while logging 636 personal hours on site. He received a letter of appreciation for his outstanding performance from Phillip Stafford, Mack Haik Healthcare LTD, Project Director for the Texas Medical Center.

The General Electric Energy Products Jacintoport Facility designs, manufactures, and repairs jet engines for the power generation industry. GE worked with Michael Bell to engineer, procure, and construct a 42,863 square foot addition to its existing complex.

In 2001, W. Michael Bell designed and built a cafeteria and trainging facility at the GE Power systems facility on Jacinto Port Boulevard. The 10,000 sq. ft. facility also serves as a meeting and training area with full projection and sound capabilities. The kitchen and serving counter can be fully closed off from the other areas as needed. The project also included a conference room, nursing station, and additional support offices.

The new facility is used as an administrative building and state of the art training center. It is connected to the existing office buildings by two hallways.

Facility Expansion & Site Improvements
Thomas & Betts Corporation is an industry leader in the manufacturing of electrical supplies and equipment. They coordinated with Michael Bell to expand and provide other improvements to the Pole Manufacturing Facility located in Houston, Texas.

Some highlights of this diverse project included the erection of a 1,700 lineal foot sound absorbative acoustical wall, construction of over 24,000 square feet of pre-engineered buildings for their manufacturing expansion, and installation of considerable surface paving with drainage & erosion control.

Pearland Manufacturing Facility
W. Michael Bell acted on a fast-track design/build contract issued by Weatherford, Inc., for the expansion of their Pearland Tool Rental and Pipeyard Facility.

In addition to providing design and engineering services for the project, Michael Bell installed more than 4 acres of new concrete paving and pipe storage foundations were built.

In addition to the site improvements, Michael Bell's team constructed a 43,000 square foot pre-engineered building featuring two 10-ton capacity overhead cranes.
