Two consortia, Groupe immobilier sant茅 缅北强奸 and Partenariat CUSM, have passed the qualification stage to develop detailed proposals for the Glen Campus public-private partnership (PPP). Both consortia comprise distinguished architects that will augment the MUHC鈥檚 Master Architects鈥 Quebec expertise with broad international experience.

Groupe immobilier sant茅 缅北强奸, led by SNC Lavalin and Innisfree Limited, has secured the architectural services of IBI Group, HDR Architecture Canada Inc., NFOE et associ茅s architectes, and Yelle Maill茅 architectes associ茅s. IBI Group, a leader in hospital and research centres design, has recently inaugurated the BC Cancer Research Centre and the Gordon and Leslie Diamond Health Care Centre, two new pavilions of the Vancouver General Hospital. The design of both centres encourages medical breakthroughs by placing clinical activities, teaching and research under the same roof. This LEED Silver-certified project was developed as a PPP.

A renowned firm in North America, HDR Architecture, has developed among other projects the Sentara Williamsburg Regional Medical Center in Virginia, which involved relocating the hospital to a new site. The new facilities are based on the most advanced patient-centric care approach, emphasizing respect for patient privacy and combining a human touch with healthcare excellence.

Partenariat CUSM, led by John Laing Investments and Obrascon Huarte Lain, will draw on the skills of architectural firms HKS and Groupe Arcop. HKS, with over 1,000 hospital projects to its credit, is recognized internationally as the leading architectural design firm in the healthcare field. The C.S. Mott Children鈥檚 and Women Hospital in Michigan was designed by HKS as a LEED-certified, 358-bed, state-of-the-art university hospital centre. The patient-centric design of that institution was conceived to provide space for patients鈥 families (lounge, kitchen, laundry room, etc.) and to create an inviting atmosphere for pediatric and adult female patients.

Groupe Arcop, a Montreal company with broad experience, has recently received much positive attention for the design of the Institute of Integrated Medical Sciences and Holistic Therapies in Gurgaon, India, a 1,550-bed hospital complex. The project includes residences for patients鈥 families and personnel, a hotel, a mall and an office building housing enterprises specialized in life sciences. Currently under construction, it follows very tight budget and schedule criteria.

Last week, under the leadership of Les architectes Lemay et associ茅s, Jodoin Lamarre Pratte et associ茅s architectes, Andr茅 Ibghy Architectes and Menk猫s Shooner Dagenais Letourneux, the MUHC鈥檚 master architectural team launched the design project for the two future healthcare campuses.

鈥淭he MUHC Redevelopment Project is a unique opportunity to develop new hospital models in Quebec that meet the needs of the 21st century,鈥 said Louis Lemay, Master Architect and President, Les architectes Lemay et associ茅s. 鈥淭he combined experience and skill sets of the master architects will ensure that we design hospitals to accommodate research and teaching alongside patient care, and which are flexible enough to incorporate new medical technologies as they become available.鈥

The master architectural team has an impressive history in designing large hospital, research and teaching facilities, including: Centre hospitalier Pierre-LeGardeur, Centre hospitalier de l鈥橴niversit茅 de Sherbrooke (H么tel-Dieu), Cit茅 de la sant茅 de Laval, 脡cole polytechnique de Montr茅al (LEED Gold certified) as well as the Marcelle-Coutu and Jean-Coutu wings of Universit茅 de Montr茅al.

As the MUHC鈥檚 Glen Campus will be developed using a PPP approach, the master architects will prepare the technical specifications required for the Request for Proposals. The Mountain Campus, on the site of the Montreal General Hospital, will be developed using a conventional approach. As a first step, the master architects will prepare the architectural concept and the plans for the various government approvals and public consultations that are required.

Furthermore, the lead team will help the MUHC during the PPP design phase, serving both as a consultant and as the representative of the hospital. Its role will be to ensure that the proposed design is optimal and that the budget and the work schedule are respected.

In the next phase, in spring 2008, the MUHC will issue its Request for Proposals, which will culminate in the selection of a private-sector partner for the development of the Glen Campus. The MUHC anticipates announcing the selected partner in December 2008.
