Sixteen Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) panels were set at UC Berkeley’s new volleyball complex.

The 6000-pound pieces fit together nicely thanks to weeks of careful planning. From Johnny’s CAD work to Nik’s layout with the Total Station, the Overaa team of Igor, Chris, Jonathan, Sam, Robert, Mark, Candido, Joel and Cam successfully completed the installation.

This week, we celebrate Women in Construction and the incredible women who are part of the Overaa team.

Choosing a career in construction takes courage. It means stepping into the unknown, breaking barriers, and having the strength to stand out. We honor that courage and the resilience it takes to build a career in this industry.

The women at Overaa bring talent, leadership, and perspective that make us better every day. Your voices, ideas, and viewpoints strengthen our teams, help us solve problems, and make our company stronger.

We know women are still underrepresented in construction. While that will not change overnight, we are proud to provide an environment where women are respected, valued, and treated as equals, something that cannot always be said for our industry. Over the past four years, we have doubled the number of women in project management and field roles. That progress matters, and it is thanks to intentional effort and a supportive culture.

We are committed to continuing that momentum by keeping our culture inclusive, supporting the Women in Construction organization and events, and being intentional about recruiting and developing talented women across all areas of our business.

Thank you for all that you do.

Overaa was pleased to sponsor and and attend Northern California Healthcare Real Estate Conference, where Colby Powell, Chief Operations Officer at Overaa, shared insightful perspectives on space optimization and operational efficiency, and how both play a critical role in delivering the next generation of outpatient care.

Colby touched on the value of standardization in medical office buildings, noting that consistent room layouts and exam spaces streamline both planning and ex*****on. He also highlighted how early contractor involvement and collaboration with permitting agencies can transform project outcomes. “Often they’re not included in the design processes upfront,” Colby noted, “but the sooner they get included, the better the outcome.” This approach proved essential on projects like the West County Health Center Expansion, where engaging with the approving agency early allowed the Overaa-led design-build team to shape the design around their requirements—resulting in a seamless permitting process and fewer surprises down the line.

Thank you to for hosting and for including Overaa in the panel, “The Evolving Landscape of MOBs: Development, Design, and Standardization.” We also extend our thanks to Terry Wood, SVP of Facilities Design and Construction at Kaiser Permanente for joining the panel and contributing to a thoughtful and engaging discussion.

A special thank you to California Attorney General Rob Bonta for reminding us that inclusion requires action—not just policy.
