Our University鈥檚 has won the prestigious 鈥楶roject of the Year鈥� honour at the (HEFMA) 2019 awards ceremony.
HEFMA annually recognises estates and facilities professionals operating within the NHS for their achievements across a number of categories.
The Centre 鈥� which opened last year after the successful completion of a 拢25m fundraising campaign by the University 鈥� was realised as a major, four-storey research building on the Southampton General Hospital site.
Designed and built by Kier Group, the venture was judged by HEFMA to be a fantastic example of effective collaborative working and a national leader in delivering capital projects.
On winning the prize, Kevin Monaghan, Executive Director of Estates and Facilities, said:
鈥淚 am delighted that this project has been the winner of this prestigious award, and it is a credit to the project team.
鈥淭his has been a truly collaborative effort between the University Hospital Trust, the Faculty of Medicine, and the Programme Management Unit of Estates and Facilities 鈥� led by Karen Baroni, and supported by Malcolm Wright and many others.
鈥淎 huge amount of hard and unseen work goes into such a project, and it is wonderful when the effort is recognised.鈥�
