Multi-specialty hospital development

Clinical brief, facility planning, equipment strategy and pre-opening readiness for a greenfield multi-specialty hospital.

Challenge

The situation

A private hospital group committed to a greenfield multi-specialty facility and needed the clinical brief, equipment strategy and operating model defined before design was fixed, when the largest long-term costs would be locked in.
