Our Programmatic Approach
A programmatic approach to social infrastructure

The New Hospital Programme is a joint venture between the Department of Health & Social Care, NHS England. The centralised programme team are running the New Hospital Programme collaboratively with NHS Trusts, Government and industry. The New Hospital Programme is going to be transformational for the health sector and set new standards for the commissioning of future social infrastructure.
Our message to industry
Traditionally each time we build a new hospital today, it’s effectively treated as a standalone scheme that fails to fully capture the opportunities to standardise design, leverage scale or foster long term sustainable growth within the UK supply chain.
The New Hospital Programme represents a dramatic shift from traditional ways of hospital building. We have a unique opportunity to create an infrastructure ecosystem that transforms the way hospitals are designed, procured and constructed.
The scale of the New Hospital Programme will call upon the skills and expertise of companies of all sizes, across a broad range of sectors.This is an opportunity for businesses to make long-term investments in their capabilities, create jobs, drive growth and help in delivering world-leading experiences for patients and staff.
We need to bring the right people and the right teams together to foster innovation and deliver hospitals of the future. That’s why we’re calling upon the knowledge and experience of the widest breadth of suppliers from construction components, medical equipment and beyond.
