Health Facilities Scotland Framework

In an attempt to ensure new standards in the provision and delivery of healthcare facilities, Health Facilities Scotland established Frameworks Scotland, a strategic and flexible partnering/collaboration approach to the procurement of publicly funded construction works. The framework was created in order to ensure earlier and faster delivery of projects, certainty of time, cost and quality, value for money and well designed buildings procured within a positive collaborative working environment. Mace was appointed as programme and project manager on the framework and has since won work with clients NHS Dumfries and Galloway, NHS Tayside and NHS Highland.

As project manager on the redevelopment of the £120m Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary project, Mace is responsible for the delivery of the 16,000 square metre new build providing over 200 new single patient bedrooms, the refurbishment of approximately 28,000 square metres of existing clinical space and the addressing of major backlog maintenance issues on the infrastructure of the existing hospital with the replacement of the heating and ventilation plant. At NHS Tayside, Mace is offering project management services on the development of the Carseview site and decant facility, and also on the new Endoscopy unit for Perth Royal Infirmary. At NHS Highland, Mace is working as programme managers on the provision of the new Angiography and Catherisation facilities at Raigmore Hospital, and the delivery of new occupational therapy flats and an admininstration block at the RNI Community Hospital in Inverness.
