The Queen Elizabeth Hospital (TQEH) has been modernised and its emergency, critical care, and surgical capabilities have been significantly enhanced with the construction of a new five-level (plus basement) clinical services building.
The building features a 46-bay emergency department, 12 operating theatres, a 14-bed intensive care unit, a 52-bed rehabilitation unit, four procedure rooms, recovery spaces, a central sterile supply department, a medical imaging department, a catheterisation laboratory, a pathology laboratory and staff support areas.
Built Environs played a crucial role from the pre-construction phase (Part A) through to construction and commissioning (Part B). Our responsibilities included:
- Conducting extensive value management
- Developing the Guaranteed Construction Sum (GCS)
- Procurement and coordination
- Testing and commissioning services for new major medical equipment, furniture, fittings, and equipment
The project was fast-tracked, with staged delivery across multiple work fronts from chassis construction through to fit-out, to ensure timely completion of this vital facility.
