HEALTHCARE ESTATES
Helping healthcare managers to build better communities
Gordian specialises in procurement and cost management solutions for construction and facilities maintenance. The company said: “Recently, leaders who manage the maintenance of one (or more) health facilities have uncovered the power of Gordian’s procurement solutions.” Gordian offers Measured Term Contracts
(MTCs), which it says ‘helps organisations enjoy flexible, ongoing maintenance under pre-agreed terms and a national pricing structure (the National Schedule of Rates or NSR). Rates are updated annually to ensure healthcare facilities always have the most current data, reflecting market conditions. This commitment to regular updates means less worry about fluctuating costs and more focus on maintaining the critical facilities that help save lives each day’. By using Gordian’s tools, the NHS can access
the latest cost data for Labour, Materials and Plant costs, ensuring that maintenance projects are both timely, cost-effective and providing transparency from start to finish. In addition to their core offerings, the
company’s MTC QS software is an advanced tool featuring built-in cost data. Gordian says this software ‘provides a cost-effective, swift and transparent procurement method. Many healthcare facilities that have adopted this software have seen significant improvements in project management and cost control’. Meet the Gordian UK team at Stand B4. The company added: “This is a fantastic opportunity to see Gordian’s solutions in action. The event promises to showcase how their tools and MTC QS software can transform healthcare facility management. It’s also a great chance to engage with experts and discover how they can help you overcome your facility management challenges.”
