TECHNICAL GOVERNANCE DANIELA PEDRINI – PRESIDENT; GIANLUCA BORELLI – SCIENTIFIC SECRETARY, S.I.A.I.S., ITALY


Effective and efficient organisation models


Daniela Pedrini, president, and Gianluca Borelli, scientific secretary, of the Italian Society of Architecture and Engineering for Healthcare (S.I.A.I.S.) discuss the actions required to improve the technical governance of hospital buildings.


Technical professionals (engineers, architects, graduate technicians) work in the technical areas of health authorities and hospitals, as well as in technical structures at regional level, for the governance of assets, safety management, and the adaptation of structures and facilities, with a focus on the quality and sustainability of intervention choices. There are three macro-areas of activity: l Management of the planning, design, and implementation processes of healthcare building interventions through the governance of the planning, execution, and activation processes of new realisations, expansions, and upgrades within the framework of the intervention programming plan, translating development needs, and corporate strategies into technical solutions through modern and effective systems.


l Management of processes relating to the technical governance of the authority’s infrastructures and assets, and maintenance of the safety and efficiency conditions of structural and plant systems in accordance with current regulations.


l Management of processes relating to real estate assets and administrative and accounting management, disposals, acquisitions, and donations.


For each of these macro- areas, activities are carried out using project management techniques. In fact, the


regulations in force require that each structure, taking into account its interfacing with the facilities and equipment, complies with the
