NG Bailey To Help Develop New Hospital

NG Bailey is to work as Carillion's building services partner to help develop the Midland Metropolitan Hospital Public Private Partnership scheme.

The new hospital, which is part of the £430m construction and support services contract, is to include around 670 beds and 15 operating theatre suites.

NG Bailey will manage the design and installation of the full MEP installation worth around £80m, which will contain a fully digital integrated IT platform.

The new hospital will also have a number of design features including a fully enclosed Winter Garden, car parking within the hospital building on the ground and first floors to create a secure environment for both patients and staff and full separation of clinical activities and journeys from the public and non-clinical services. In addition, the design and construction of the hospital will meet the highest standards of sustainability.

Construction is expected to start early in 2016. Completion is scheduled for mid-2018, with the hospital opening in late 2018.
