NCC has secured an additional contract for the refurbishment and extension of Ryhov County Hospital in Jönköping, Sweden.
The assignment is part of an ongoing framework agreement with Regionfastigheter, which manages and develops properties for Region Skåne.
This turnkey contract, valued at approximately Skr150m ($14.97m), will see NCC upgrade the hospital’s facilities.
The project, which is the second of three independent subprojects under Akutspåret, will involve the refurbishment of the cardiac care unit and the provision of new ward beds for medicine and outpatient care, along with associated rehabilitation activities.
Regionfastigheter Jönköping construction project manager Thomas Svärd said: “Effective cooperation in the first subproject between Region Jönköping and NCC through the partnering agreement for Akutspåret has led to an additional suborder in the project.
“This cooperation forms the basis for the new project, and we are looking forward to obtaining new and modern premises for our activities that we will be able to move into and ensure healthcare for the future in Jönköping.”
Additionally, NCC will build an operating theatre and a new low-voltage distribution plant at the hospital.
The refurbishment and expansion work will encompass roughly 2,600m², with an additional 600m² for new construction.
NCC will carry out the project in stages, ensuring that hospital operations can continue uninterrupted.
The order will be booked under the NCC Building Sweden business area in the first quarter of 2025.
This project will start immediately, with completion expected by the end of 2027.
Ryhov County Hospital’s original construction was completed between 1980 and 1988 by a consortium that comprised ABV, SIAB, and Skanska, with ABV and SIAB now being part of NCC.
NCC Building Sweden Southeast business manager Andreas Saltin said: “Building and refurbishing at the same time as critical healthcare activities are being carried out requires a great deal from us where logistics, communication and temporary solutions are concerned.
“So it is extremely important that this takes place in close collaboration and with the involvement of healthcare personnel, patients and citizens – which NCC has extensive experience in.”
Recently, NCC also received five asphalt contracts from the Norwegian Public Roads Administration, with a combined order value of approximately Skr250m.
