BAM’s General Intensive Care Unit delivered for the University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust (UHS) named \u2018Best Non-residential Extension or Alteration of the Year\u2019<\/h2>\n

The \u00a322 million state-of-the-art General Intensive Care Unit (GICU), at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust (UHS), was designed by architect Stride Treglown and delivered by BAM Construction<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It has now been named \u2018Best Non-residential Extension or Alteration of the Year\u2019 at the 2021 LABC<\/a> (Local Authority Building Control<\/a>) Building Excellence Awards.<\/p>\n

State-of-the-art four-storey extension<\/h3>\n

The GICU is located on the first floor of a four-storey extension at the front of the UHS\u2019 main site, Southampton General Hospital.<\/p>\n

The facility was designed with the use of natural daylight in mind, to create a sense of connection to the outside.<\/p>\n

The unit\u2019s requirements of observation, privacy and flexibility are also reflected with a mix of open bays and isolation rooms, including a specialist burns room with humidity control.<\/a><\/p>\n

Adam Harding, regional director \u2013 South East for BAM Construction, commented: “We are delighted to receive this prestigious recognition from the LABC.<\/p>\n

“Work on the new GICU at University Hospital Southampton began pre-pandemic when no-one could have predicted how important the need for the new facility would become in the face of what was an unprecedented nationwide medical crisis.<\/p>\n

“As the scale of the situation became apparent, delivery of the new GICU was critical and a monumental effort from the project team meant that we were able to hand over the project earlier than planned, giving UHS additional Intensive Care beds at a time when they were needed most.”<\/p>\n

Lorna Stimpson, LABC chief executive said: “These awards reflect LABC\u2019s new focus on skills, quality and competency and reflect the best in construction from a technical perspective.<\/p>\n

“The BAM team at University Hospital Southampton, faced \u2013 and overcame \u2013 the most extraordinary circumstances \u2013 a crumbling supply chain and anxious workforce when Covid first hit.<\/p>\n

“They pulled quickly together as a team, introducing Covid secure measures and motivating the entire supply chain. UHS was delighted and relieved to take ownership of the new facility, delivered on budget and ahead of time.”<\/p>\n

BIM and asset modelling<\/h3>\n

BAM worked closely with the Trust\u2019s Estate Project team, who provided P22 Project Management and Supervisor roles and instigated a robust BIM and asset modelling requirement.<\/p>\n
