DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT FOR THE UK HEALTHCARE SECTOR ENVIRONMENTAL, ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL SERVICES FROM RSK Environment and Geosciences and Contracting Property consultancy Corporate advisory planning engineering and sustainability

Healthcare organisations face major challenges in construction and estate management, and more recently with a push towards the HIP1 and HIP2 new- build programmes. Within the NHS, for example, new builds and refurbishment projects must be delivered to net-zero-carbon standards and the Estates and Facilities Management Stretch programme aims to reduce the environmental impact of estates. In addition, NHS trusts have to increase asset efficiency and utilisation while managing an ageing property portfolio with maintenance backlogs and capital work underspending.

RSK understands these challenges.
