Project Information
P McVey Building Systems successfully delivered the C-Tric project at Altnagelvin Hospital. This fast-paced delivery demonstrates our ability to handle complex healthcare projects efficiently and safely while maintaining high quality standards. From the start, the team prioritised compliance with building regulations, particularly Part E, due to the building’s location next to an internal courtyard. It was designed and built to meet all safety and regulatory requirements. As a result, patients, staff, and visitors now benefit from a safe, comfortable, and fully compliant environment. Our team completed the groundworks, foundations, and civil works. Coordinating closely with a trusted subcontractor to maintain quality, accuracy, and schedule throughout the project. This close collaboration helped the team solve logistical challenges quickly and ensured the project ran smoothly despite its tight timeframe.
Offsite Solution
A key factor in the project’s success was the use of offsite modular construction. The building was completed in a controlled factory. This method allowed the team to maintain strict quality control and reduce on-site work. Consequently, disruption to the hospital campus remained minimal, and staff could continue normal operations without major interruptions. Once the modules arrived on site, the team installed them quickly using a streamlined lifting and assembly process. They also integrated building services and internal finishes efficiently, ensuring each area was ready for use in a short time. By combining offsite manufacturing with careful on-site installation, it improved delivery speed, ensured consistent quality, and reduced the environmental impact of the build.
