WT Partnership (“WT”) is extremely proud to announce our appointment as the Owner’s Cost Consultant for the new design-build Calgary Cancer Project (CCP) in Alberta, with services extending through to 2024.
The new Calgary Cancer Centre is a priority project for the Alberta Government to deliver a first-class health care facility and academic hub for the provision of cancer services in Southern Alberta, which will increase cancer care capacity in Calgary by consolidating and expanding upon existing services in the greater Calgary area to support integrated and comprehensive cancer care.
The project will integrate new expanded cancer care with current key programs and services at the Foothills Medical Centre (FMC). The total project program is planned to accommodate a new, comprehensive cancer centre facility targeting LEED Silver certification with a gross building area of approximately 109,000 square metres (over 1 million square feet).
Philip Nixon, Director of WT Partnership and a Professional Quantity Surveyor stated
“WT has a fantastic record in the healthcare space internationally. We are pleased to have brought local expertise and international perspective to the province, and look forward to successfully delivering this key social infrastructure project.”
This is not WT’s first foray into purpose built Cancer Centres, having recently completed a similar cost consulting mandate for the New Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre (VCCC) P3 project in Melbourne, Australia developed by Plenary Group and constructed by a joint venture partnership of Grocon and PCL. The $1 Billion (AUD), 120,000 square metre, 13-storey, and state of the art building creates purpose-built facility that brings together the world’s best researchers and clinicians and scientists to accelerate advances in cancer research, care and education.
