HEALTHCARE FACILITY BACKGROUND
Broadgreen Hospital was originally constructed in 1910 with a small two storey office and
residential accommodation and single storey pavilion wards. Over the years the hospital
facility has developed to become a General Hospital and Cardiothoraric Centre serving the
Eastern area of Liverpool.
EMCOR’S CONSTRUCTION DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES
EMCOR’s objectives for the Liverpool healthcare facility development are to assist the Client in meeting the strategic
aims of the Cardiothoraric Centre of implementing the recommendations of the Regional
Review, expanding to meet the National Service Framework demands, meeting the Patient
Charter targets on waiting times and facilitating the implementation of the strategy for
lung cancer services.
EMCOR’s further objectives for this construction project are to assist the Client in meeting the
strategic aims of the Royal Liverpool & Broadgreen University Hospitals of increasing
capacity, consolidating the patients from both sites in new larger healthcare facilities, bringing assets
up to standard, bringing utilisation of assets into a better balance and provide purpose built
new accommodation designed for new models of service which will better meet patients
needs.
EMCOR UK SERVICES VALUE DELIVERED
EMCOR Engineering Services were awarded the Royal Broadgreen Hospital along with a
number of schemes throughout the UK worth in excess of £28 million via the NHS
Procure 21, Pilot Region and National Framework Initiative. With EMCOR’s extensive
mechanical, electrical, and public health engineering experience within the healthcare sector over a prolonged period of time it proved to be
critical in securing this place on the Framework.
EMCOR were able to meet the fundamental requirements for Procure 21 including; a clear
understanding of the partnering ethos and the ability to work in a collaborative manner
based upon the Egan Report and Principles.
EMCOR was able to demonstrate its full commitment to these principles through its
involvement in projects undertaken for Defence Estates in East Anglia and Wiltshire under
Prime Contracting, which was a forerunner to Procure 21. This experience was exactly in
line with the NHS pre-requisites to qualify as a PSCM and EMCOR were first on many
Principle Supply Chain Partner’s calling cards when bidding to secure a place on the
Framework.
Commenting on the wins, Terry Hewitt, Director of EMCOR Engineering Health, said,"Our network of offices throughout the UK offers NHS Estates and our Principal Supply
Chain Partners, a unique service by providing the local expertise and experience of a
regional Mechanical and Electrical specialist with access to resources and skills of a
major, national company, totally co-ordinated under a bespoke Management
Unit."Carillion
"Schemes undertaken in this sector have required cost planning, innovation and best
practice in design and construction with our substantial portfolio of knowledge bringing
best value solutions."
Such proposals by EMCOR’s construction services have included alternative solutions to the barn theatres
providing more space and saving money and developing innovative solutions to replace
the outdated Integrated Plumbing Solution with tried and tested technology. EMCOR is
also adopting the latest techniques to reduce waste, reduce site labour, increase health and
safety and reduce defects. EMCOR are actively involved in the process with not only
Norwest Holst, but also the NHS.
