Our scope included extensive groundworks, drainage and utility diversions, all within a constrained, high-risk healthcare environment. Works were carefully phased around critical hospital operations, with real-time coordination ensuring 24/7 access was maintained for emergency services. The project demonstrated our ability to deliver technically demanding infrastructure in sensitive settings, with safety, environmental performance, and community impact at the forefront of our delivery approach.
Scope of works.
Duration ongoing | Value £2m | Queen Victoria Hospital NHS Trust
O’Connell Contracting delivered complex infrastructure works at Queen Victoria Hospital, a live NHS site with a specialist burns unit, while maintaining patient wellbeing and programme pace. Through flexible scheduling, out-of-hours working, and close communication with NHS staff, we avoided disruption and stayed ahead of schedule. Strong supply chain coordination enabled 99% on-time deliveries, and 64% of operatives were locally employed, injecting £50,000 into the local economy.
