Project Overview

Pennine Acute NHS FT want to extend their existing main hospital building to construct a new ward block, providing 48 new beds across four storeys. The scheme involves complex enabling works to relocate clinical departments and demolish existing dilapidated estate. DAY PM were appointed as Project Managers to take over from the incumbent PM’s after the scheme had stalled. We initiated a “first 100 days” approach to turning the project around, as the enabling schemes were not being progressed, despite these being Critical Path items. The project team was disjointed. We implemented a collaborative working strategy to pull the project together and successfully brought the scheme back onto programme and budget within the initial 100 day period. The scheme is being delivered via the ProCure22 Framework. The collaboration we have fostered in a short period of time between the client, the contractor and the design team is testament to the approach we take to framework co-operation.
