Willmott Dixon bags eighth ProCure 21+ project

Willmott Dixon has secured its eighth ProCure 21+ project after being selected by South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (SWYPFT) for its £24m upgrade plans.

The firm will deliver the capital investment programme over the next five years including M&E renewal and energy efficiency advice, ward refurbishments and infrastructure works. 

Initially, Willmott Dixon will assist on planning matters and help SWYPFT develop its estate strategy to identify priorities in its investment programme.

Working with Willmott Dixon will be members of its ProCure 21+ supply chain including Medical Architecture, providing architectural and strategic design advice, URS Scott Wilson as M&E and structural services consultant, and VB Johnson as cost advisor. 

SWYPFT provides community, mental health and learning disability services to Barnsley, Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield, and some services to Yorkshire and the Humber.

Jon Taylor, pre-construction director for Willmott Dixon in the North, said: “Willmott Dixon’s appointment in this partnership emphasises the value that SWYPFT places in our ability to be its strategic partner in delivering important long-term estate improvements. We will provide advice and support in the design and planning stage and then carry out construction work with our team of advisors to ensure SWYPFT is equipped to meet the future needs of people who use the services.”
