Latest issue of HEJ features Ryder Architecture’s experts on use of MMC in delivery of new hospitals
Satellite MPR was delighted to secure thought-leadership content for our client Ryder Architecture’s healthcare team in the latest issue of Health Estate Journal. Paul Bell, Partner at Ryder Architecture, discusses successfully delivering major healthcare projects in the context of post Brexit labour shortages, post pandemic material supply and the escalating climate emergency – a challenge that he says requires fresh thinking.

Using such methods also represents a significant opportunity to create a more efficient and responsive healthcare estate. However, selecting the right MMC solution for a project can be challenging and potentially constrictive if, as there is often a tendency, a singular MMC typology is adhered to. In this expert view piece, using project examples at Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary and the Whipps Cross Hospital redevelopment, Paul argues that it is not only possible to develop a flexible design solution that can accommodate multiple variations of MMC, but in doing so project risk can be minimised and a client’s ambitions can be better achieved.
