Marriott
Technical, energy, and operational complexity within an active hospitality asset
The hotel faced multiple challenges simultaneously:
Existing infrastructure requiring civil, electrical, and stormwater redesigns to support new areas such as the parking facility.
Critical decisions regarding the transition of energy systems, moving from isolated solutions to an integrated scheme involving a microgrid, solar generation, and battery energy storage.
The need to evaluate highly complex technical proposals from specialized vendors without compromising the hotel’s operational continuity.
Risk of overinvestment, oversized designs, or solutions misaligned with real operational and regulatory conditions.
Without a comprehensive perspective and an independent technical advisor, the project risked becoming fragmented, more expensive, or losing both technical and financial control.
From isolated projects to an integrated, controlled technical strategy
S3 Ingenieros acted as the owner’s trusted technical advisor, shifting the project’s approach:
From isolated decisions → to a systemic view of infrastructure and energy.
From price-driven bidding → to structured processes with clear technical criteria.
From reactive execution → to planned, controlled, and continuous technical oversight.
This shift enabled the client to make informed decisions from early stages, reduce uncertainty, and align design, construction, and operations under a single, coherent technical framework.
Comprehensive technical support: design, advisory, bidding, and oversight
S3 delivered an integrated solution that included:
Infrastructure Design & Redesign
Civil, electrical, and stormwater infrastructure for the hotel’s parking facility.
Redesign of lighting, access control, and telecommunications systems.
Geometric optimization and earthworks planning to minimize construction impacts and costs.
Strategic Energy Advisory
Analysis and preliminary sizing of the photovoltaic system and microgrid.
Definition of technical criteria for the bidding and award of an EPC + O&M provider.
Independent technical evaluation of proposals prior to contracting.
Investment Oversight & Construction Control
Technical review of the final microgrid system design.
Supervision of construction, testing, and commissioning.
Control of progress, submittals, and milestone-based disbursements.
Final project acceptance and verification of contractual compliance.
