Effective construction procurement solutions for ‘struggling’ UK healthcare estates

Recently, leaders who manage the maintenance of one (or more) health facility have uncovered the power of Gordian’s procurement solutions.

Having first brought its expertise and services to the UK in 2023, Gordian offers Measured Term Contracts (MTCs), which ‘help organisations enjoy flexible, ongoing maintenance under pre-agreed terms and a national pricing structure (the National Schedule of Rates or NSR)’. Rates are updated annually to ensure healthcare facilities always have the most current data, reflecting market conditions. Gordian explained: “This commitment to regular updates means less worry about fluctuating costs, and more focus on maintaining the critical facilities that help save lives each day.  

Since introducing its UK offerings last year, Gordian has established a partnership with the NHS, which it says has been instrumental in helping the service manage its significant maintenance needs. By using Gordian’s tools, the NHS can access the latest cost data for labour, materials, and plant costs, ensuring that maintenance projects are both timely and cost-effective. 

In addition to its core offerings, the company’s MTC QS software is an advanced tool featuring built-in cost data. This software provides a cost-effective, swift, and transparent procurement method. Many healthcare facilities that have adopted it have seen significant improvements in project management and cost control. 

Navigating the post-PFI landscape 

As the UK moves away from Private Finance Initiative (PFI) contracts, the need for accurate and timely condition data has never been greater. PFI contracts, which have been a cornerstone of public infrastructure funding, are increasingly coming to an end. This shift places a significant burden on healthcare facilities. Gordian is leading the way in addressing these challenges, providing the reliable data needed to make informed decisions and maintain high standards of facility management. 

Meet team members from Gordian on Stand B8. This is a fantastic opportunity to see Gordian’s solutions in action. The event promises to showcase how its tools and MTC QS software can transform healthcare facility management. It’s also a great chance to engage with experts, explore the latest innovations, and discover how the company can help you overcome your facility management challenges.
