  • Title: Health care construction: getting it right the first time.
    Author: Westland EH.
    Journal: J Health Adm Educ; 1988; 6(4 Pt 1):785-94. PubMed ID: 10291624.
    Abstract:
    This article is written from a construction manager's point of view. Many activities involved in this particular contracting approach to hospital construction are generic to other approaches, such as a lump sum bid contract or design/build. The author emphasizes the benefits and economies of setting clear, well-understood goals at the beginning of the project and carrying through with a consistent, well-managed decision-making process. The construction phase is described with sufficient thoroughness and detail to provide the health care executive a good technical reference for any health care construction project.
