CSSD Design & Build
cfes delivered a series of six state-of-the-art sterile service unit super-centres, equipped with advanced plant machinery and comprehensive management and personnel facilities. Located in West Yorkshire, Cambridgeshire, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Devon, and Hampshire, these centres were developed to meet the highest standards in healthcare construction.
The construction of each sterile service unit spanned a twenty-two-week period, utilising a sectional completion schedule to facilitate overlapping phases and ensure timely project sign-off.
Our client prioritised compliance with the latest Healthcare Commission directives, particularly with the introduction of HBN 13. These new centres not only enhance operational efficiency but also free up valuable space within hospitals, allowing for the repurposing of ward and theatre areas.
cfes provided a range of essential services throughout the project, including:
- Building and services surveys
- Structural and services design
- Principal contractor responsibilities, encompassing:
- Project management
- Installation of mechanical and electrical (M&E) services
- Construction and finishing work
- Pre-installation and integration with specialist equipment providers
