Helping staff & patients by managing fire improvement and defect works

The Project

Following the collapse of Carillion in January 2018, the project was left with a significant challenge to complete Fire Improvement and Defect works at Queen Alexandra Hospital, Portsmouth.

The Response

– Project Management
– Construction Management
– Mechanical and Electrical Design
– Architectural Design

The Brief

There was a programme of circa 200 defects and 28 fire improvement projects that were programmed to be completed by the end of March 2023.

Timeframe

Pario placed our own Project managers on site and set up a framework agreement with a Design and Build contractor. The partnership developed into a 5-year framework agreement which included Principle Contractor and Principle Designer roles to assist with the extensive programme of defects and major necessary fire improvements.
