Our Process

Strategic facility and capital planning is a crucial process that organizations undertake to align their physical infrastructure and financial resources with their long-term goals and objectives. This process involves careful assessment, decision-making, and prioritization to ensure that facilities and capital investments support the organization's strategic direction. Here is an overview of the key steps involved in our process:

Begin by defining the organization's strategic goals and objectives. These could include growth targets, cost reduction goals, operational efficiencies improvements, sustainability objectives, or any other long-term strategic goals.

Create an inventory of all existing facilities and assets. This includes buildings, equipment, land, and other physical assets. Evaluate their condition, functionality, and capacity to determine their highest and best use for the long term.

Collect data related to the organization's patient utilization, operations, workforce, and future needs. This might involve market research, demographic analysis, and assessments of technology requirements.

Evaluate how well the current facilities are supporting the organization's objectives. Consider factors like proper adjacencies, occupancy rates, maintenance costs, energy efficiency, and compliance with regulations.

Determine the required capital investments in facilities and infrastructure to align with strategic goals. This includes identifying areas where new construction, renovation, or upgrades are needed.

Prioritize capital projects based on their alignment with strategic goals, urgency, and potential return on investment (ROI). Consider factors like cost, risk, and the expected impact on the organization.

Create a budget that outlines the financial resources required for each capital project. Include estimates for construction, renovation, equipment purchase, and ongoing maintenance costs.

Develop detailed plans for executing each capital project. This includes project timelines, resource allocation, and procurement strategies.

Communicate the facility and capital plan to relevant stakeholders, including employees, investors, and regulatory authorities. Seek input and feedback from key stakeholders throughout the process.

After completion of each capital project, conduct a post-implementation review to assess its impact on the organization's strategic goals. Use this information to refine future planning processes.

As the organization's strategic goals evolve or new opportunities and challenges arise, update the facility and capital plan accordingly. This process should be ongoing and flexible.
