In March 2012 Opex accepted a commission from John Laing Investments to take the post of interim technical manager at the hospital. The role was to manage the Hard FM contractor and in particular monitor their work and ensure they met contractual and statutory compliance requirements and to also strengthen the management framework, processes, and documentation including significant reshaping of technical auditing and client variations procedures.
In January 2003 The Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital asked us to provide full bidding support to initiate the SPV, but then latterly to the FM company on this award-winning hospital development. The hospital was unique in its design (by BDP), due primarily to its strong focus on children and the restricted site footprint available and this gave a lead to the increasing sized floor plates further up the 8 stories of the building and hence due to its shape, it was christened the ‘Arc’.
The procurement process and the bid was won and is now fully operational having opened in May 2007.
Working closely with the client’s management team Opex prepared comprehensive tender documents and issued these to the market’s leading providers. On receipt of the tenders and working within a bespoke tender process and evaluation matrix, the tenders were assessed and after clarifications, recommendations were made for companies to present their proposals, prior to the appointment of the new supplier.
