Quick construction and efficient workflows <\/strong>
\nThe psychiatric hospital has been built by means of a public-private partnership, where\u00a0a private team has built the hospital, invested in the project and will be responsible for operating and maintaining it for the next 25 years. The PPP team consists of the three investors PKA, PensionDanmark and Sampension, while MT H\u00f8jgaard is the contractor and DEAS is responsible for the operations. Arkitema drafted the healing architecture, and Artelia consulted on the installation work. One of the fundamental ideas behind PPP is to make it more economically attractive and quicker to\u00a0solve public construction and civil engineering tasks. The psychiatric hospital has also been realised several years earlier than if the Region of South Denmark were responsible for the construction themselves.<\/p>\nThe Business Director for Building at Artelia Aarhus, Jakob Mariager, highlights another positive aspect of the process:<\/p>\n
“Since the PPP partners were given responsibil-ity for the project from the start, we clarified the expectations and the needs of the users very early in the process. The Region of South Denmark has also been very keen on defining their desires and requirements for the construction project. At Artelia, we quickly obtained a solid foundation to work with when we <\/em>started to dimension the technical installations, and we have experienced fewer changes during the project and the implementation.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nFuture-proof solutions<\/strong>
\nAllowing the same team to be responsible for both the construction and subsequent operation has also resulted in good professional synergy, where the operational aspects have been incorporated into the technical solutions. Another key vision of the PPP model is precisely that the supplier is given a great deal of leeway, but also a strong incentive to create long-term comprehensive solutions for the operation and maintenance. From an engineering perspec-tive, this has placed special demands on the design of the technical solutions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n![](\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\")
