VINCI Construction to build the second building of the New Reims Hospital
- Construction of the second building in the New Reims Hospital complex for the CHU de Reims
- A €210 million contract
The Centre Hospitalier Universitaire (CHU) de Reims has entrusted VINCI Construction with the contract to build the second building in the New Reims Hospital complex. The works contract is worth a total €210 million (excl. tax), €157 million of which will go to VINCI Construction. The project execution has been entrusted to a consortium led by Pargade Architectes.
The works are scheduled to last 45 months, during which the hospital must remain in ordinary working order, and primarily involve the construction of a 58,000 m² building spanning seven floors that will accommodate 498 beds, reception and diagnosis areas, high-tech medical platforms, an in-patient zone, a hospital pharmacy, as well as logistics and technical control rooms. The building, named after Madeleine Brès, the first French woman to obtain a medical degree, will mainly house medical activities, including chronic diseases and neuroscience. It will be connected to the existing buildings in the hospital complex to ensure continuity of flow across the site.
The New Reims Hospital project intends to upgrade the healthcare provided by the CHU, in particular thanks to cutting-edge equipment, enhanced quality of care for out-patients and an improved service for in-patients. The teams from VINCI Construction were already involved in the construction of the first building for the New Reims Hospital complex.
This new contract further underscores the recognition enjoyed by the VINCI Group in healthcare infrastructure. In France, the teams from VINCI Construction are also involved in the construction of the “New Lariboisière” building for Assistance Publique – Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP), the new CHU in Nantes, the new Hôpital Métropolitain de l’Artois in Lens, as well as the reconstruction of the Chaumont ospital, Caen CHU and AP-HP’s Hôtel-Dieu hospital.
The teams from VINCI Energies are also involved in many hospital-related contracts and technical works packages.
