UK-based construction services firm Kier has been chosen by the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust to deliver a £97.1m project at Heartlands Hospital.

The project, which has been procured through the P22 framework, is a new Ambulatory Care and Diagnostics Centre (ACAD).

The scope of the project will include the construction of a new 18,000m² four-storey building.

When completed, the development will provide several advanced facilities for the hospital, including 120 consultation rooms, 26 specialist audiology and ear nose and throat rooms, ultrasound and X-ray rooms, as well as MRI and CT scanners.

The building has been designed to provide a modern, spacious environment purpose-built to meet the needs of patients, with dementia-friendly and accessible design features.

Upon completion, the facility will provide care services for half a million patients per annum.
