24-bed Modular ITU Ward, William Harvey Hospital, Ashford

Project: 24-bed modular ITU Ward
Sector: Healthcare
Procurement: Design & Build
Value: £14m
Client: 2gether Support Solutions
Services: Quantity Surveyor
Status: Pre-contract

A vital extension to the Ashford hospital of a modern, 24 bed modular intensive care unit. Acting as QS for the East Kent Hospitals Trust, Modus will ensure the highest quality of build, providing a safe and comfortable environment for all patients.

The project is utilising pre-fabricated off-site modular construction to achieve a shorter contract period and mitigate some of the risk/issues with working at an active hospital.

Modular building allows for a significant portion of the construction phase to take place off-site and simultaneously to the groundworks being undertaken on-site. This results in a more efficient construction programme and greatly reducing the amount of deliveries/disturbance on-site.
