NICU EXPANSION, ST THOMAS’ HOSPITAL Case Studies
Page heading to go here
This project was one of the early phases of the Evelina Children’s Hospital Phase 1 Expansion programme.
Whilst modest in capital value at just £1.7m, the project involved many complex challenges to the stakeholders and our Project Management Team:
• Reconfiguration within an existing fully operational Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to provide additional capacity within a confined space • The need to fully mitigate the impact of the works on existing clinical capacity, i.e. ensuring ‘business as usual’ • Redesigning the infrastructure to cope with the expansion • Limitations on access for pre-commencement surveys due to the presence of asbestos • The subsequent identification and removal of asbestos • Managing a complex stakeholder group Careful planning, a robust communication plan with stakeholders and the contractor, the establishment of a strong working relationship and shared objectives across the Project Team and participants all contributed to the successful delivery of the project.
