NCC and Sörmland County Council in strategic partnership on three hospital projects

NCC and Sörmland County Council have agreed to refurbish and extend three
hospitals in Södermanland in a contract valued at about SEK 3 billion. The
partnership will commence immediately with planning and, within eight years, the
upgraded hospitals will be completed in Eskilstuna, Katrineholm and Nyköping.
The contract comprises the following hospitals: Mälarsjukhuset in Eskilstuna,
Kullbergska sjukhuset in Katrineholm and Nyköpings lasarett. The Sörmland County
Council have chosen to upgrade these three hospitals as part of a strategic
partnering arrangement with NCC. This means that all planning and implementation
for the project will be conducted jointly.

“With NCC’s expertise and capacity by our side, we feel sure the project can be
completed in a professional manner,” says Technical Manager Johnny Niskanen at
Sörmland County Council.

At Mälarsjukhuset in Eskilstuna, which is the single largest part of the
project, some older premises will be demolished, others upgraded and new
premises built. The combination of new construction and upgrade will also be
applied at the Kullbergska sjukhuset in Katrineholm and at Nyköpings lasarett.

“The existing care facilities need to be updated. Together with the County
Council, we will be able to develop and build more suitable and modern care
facilities which keep the patient in focus,” says Henrik Landelius, Vice
President of NCC Construction Sweden.

Renovating and constructing new hospitals is also an investment in
sustainability. The new premises will have significantly reduced energy
consumption and an improved operating cost, the employees’ work environment will
be enhanced and a more efficient care process will benefit patients.

Strategic partnering is the key to higher quality and lower costs. This
comprises an open partnership over several projects with the same team.  The
organization’s learning curve will be used optimally and the parties will learn
each other’s needs, processes and strategically important investments, thus
enabling costs to be reduced, quality developed and production time to be
shortened.

Ongoing call-offs will be carried out in pace with the start of projects within
the framework of the agreement. The first parts will be registered and started
in September 2015.
