University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Hospital Trust and Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Health Infrastructure Plan (New Hospital Programme)

We are currently working through a Strategic Outline Case (with a potential requirement for a Pre-consultation business case [PCBC]) programme to conclude April 2022. We have also developed the Estates and Facilities Strategies for the respective provider organisations (Trust’s) for the interim and longer-term estate solutions.

Our team initially worked with Lancashire Teaching Hospitals to produce a acute sustainability plan, when the acute system at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals was demonstrating a revenue deficit figure in the region of 8% from an income and expenditure perspective.

We were engaged to support on an acute feasibility study which involved a number of reviews. This included but was not limited to: Demographical analysis, Service strategy reviews, Activity modelling, Capacity planning, Patient pathways, Departmental and functional content, Development Control Plans, Capital and Revenue costing, Production of an acute feasibility Strategic Outline Case. This work led onto the HIP2 funding application.

We have also provide a range of strategic advisory services to the client team in respect of the c£36m Lancashire and South Cumbria Pathology Collaboration, including OBC authorship and programme management support.
