Healthcare Engineering and Advisory Services

Trends Projects Insights Sectors Services Experts

Our global network of engineers, consultants and advisors are passionate about creating the best outcomes for people – for staff, patients and their families. Through our designs and advice, we deliver high-quality projects that support the highest standards of modern clinical care in high-performance, efficient buildings.

Healthcare trends

The impacts of climate change, digital transformation and the constant evolution of medical science bring many challenges, but also many opportunities for healthcare designers.

Helping you decarbonize

One of the greatest challenges facing healthcare facilities is decarbonisation. Our experts in net zero have expertise across a wide range range of technical engineering disciplines. We can help with your decarbonisation journey, navigating a roadmap for both old and new infrastructure.

Innovating to net zero

Embracing technology to enable better Healthcare

Digital technology can enhance the experiences of patients, their families and hospital staff. We can help you to navigate your digital transformation journey, from solving complex problems and bringing insights from data, to optimising your facility’s operational performance through digitisation.

Accelerate your digital transformation

Creating flexible and adaptive facilities

To be future ready, the ability of a healthcare facility to flex and adapt quickly to the changing needs of the community it serves is of paramount importance. With this in mind, through their advice and designs, our teams enable our clients to anticipate the potential flexibility of their projects.

Enabling flexibility

Modern Methods of Construction

Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) provide a safe, efficient and sustainable alternative to traditional methods. We have been leaders in the adoption of new construction technologies for over 20 years, rethinking offsite construction and incorporating integrated digital design delivery.

Our approach

Positive Experiences

Healthcare facilities are never just a building – they are places that touch patients and their families at a critical moment in their lives, often when they are at their most vulnerable. We think differently about how to create a nurturing environment for everyone, from patients and their families to clinical and supporting staff.

Healing Environments

Patient safety is a guiding principle in every decision we take. Our specialist teams integrate hygiene and infection control into the earliest concept drawings, to actively promote wellbeing and protect all patients, as well as the caregivers who look after them.

Operational Excellence

Providing high-quality, affordable, sustainable healthcare means making the best possible use of limited resources, while meeting the most exacting technical standards. Our clients rely on us to deliver high-performance buildings whilst being cost effective to operate, leaving them free to focus on delivering for the communities who depend on them
