{Your Company Name} has had a strong focus on healthcare construction for the better part of 25 years now. From hospitals and extended-care facilities to urgent-care clinics and ambulance stations, we’ve delivered innovative medical facilities for a range of clients serving the healthcare market.
We recently completed the new construction of the 27,870m² Mona Manly Hospital complex in northern Sydney, New South Wales.
The facility is a mix of private and public healthcare that serves more than 90,000 patients annually. Mona Manly Hospital has a full service urgent care facility, obstetrics unit and has more than 200 physicians on staff.
To finish such a significant project on time and on budget, we had to follow a very thorough and detailed process. From the start, we took the time to make sure all our functional teams understood the goals of the build to ensure we were always making decisions with the end user and client in mind.
From here, we performed a full architectural, engineering and electrical system assessment so we could outline any perceived limitations and regulatory constraints early on. Avoiding potentially costly surprises down the road.
Next, we created a master facility plan. This is our original project blueprint and what we continuously referred back to as we moved through the build. This includes detailed field assessments and management interviews for the conceptual input so we can confirm what’s being constructed is actually going to be user-friendly.
Taking the time to prepare for such a complex project enabled us to closely forecast the financial requirements of the build and determine if the proposed budget is indeed realistic.
Once we had all the necessary information we completed the final construction documents to confirm final designs, project scope, budgets and schedule. And then, procurement could begin. Where possible, we opt for local suppliers and contractors - this helped to engage local stakeholders and demonstrate to the community that they too could benefit from such a large infrastructure project being built in their region.
From here, about 12 months into the project, we broke ground and building began on time. The facility took three years to complete. We handed over the keys with as-built drawings, operations manuals, training sessions in 2016 and completed a 12-month checkup to ensure everything continued to run smoothly.
We pride ourselves on adding value by building well thought through facilities that streamline workflows, can be scaled with growing demand and promote better patient care.
Today, the facility continues to serve the local community, offering exceptional care to those who need it most.
