Kelly Henderson, Associate Director, Angus Connect, moderates a panel exploring collaborative delivery of the new Portage Regional Health Centre. 

Drawing on this approximately 275,000-square-foot healthcare project, the discussion will examine how early collaboration, design-assist and lessons learned can inform the delivery of future healthcare capital projects across Manitoba.

Manitoba has been advancing a coordinated program of healthcare capital investments intended to strengthen regional networks and bring more care closer to home. The new Portage Regional Health Centre, a two-storey, approximately 275,000-square-foot facility with 114 acute care beds, provides a timely case study in translating provincial priorities into a rapidly delivered, community-responsive healthcare project.

Bringing together perspectives from architecture, engineering and construction management, the panel will explore how early collaboration shaped project delivery, including:

  • The benefits of the construction management model and the use of design-assist with key mechanical and electrical trades to support progress through design and construction
  • Balancing provincial standards and regional service objectives with the needs of local clinicians, patients and communities
  • Lessons learned from the Portage Regional Health Centre and how they can be applied to Manitoba’s pipeline of future healthcare capital projects

HH Angus is pleased to be working with B+H Architects and CSO Architects out of Indianapolis on this exciting project. The Welland plant is a full-service MEP engineering role for us, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, security, IT, vertical transportation and lighting.

WELLAND, ON, Aug. 26, 2016 /CNW/ – GE (NYSE: GE)

Premier Kathleen Wynne and the Honourable Chrystia Freeland, Federal Minister of International Trade, joined GE global executives and representatives from Welland and the Niagara Region in a ground-breaking ceremony celebrating the start of construction for GE’s multi-modal “Brilliant Factory” in Canada. The facility is expected to create 220 jobs with operations commencing in early 2018. The first phase of the investment is 65M US.

This first–of-its-kind facility in Canada will combine decades of experience building innovative industrial machines with cutting-edge data science and analytics expertise to enhance efficiency and streamline production.  The facility will initially manufacture GE Power’s reciprocating gas engines, components for compression, mechanical drive, and power generation, and manufacture components for GE transportation diesel engines. The multi-modal design enables future production expansion for other GE global businesses including Power, Oil & Gas, and Transportation.

Welland’s close proximity to the US border, availability of skilled labour and education facilities were important considerations in the location of the factory. Architectural and design companies selected by GE for the project include HH Angus, B+H Architects, CSO Architects, Lea Consulting and Thorton Tomasetti. PCL Construction is the general contractor.
