De-Risking Healthcare Construction Projects with MMC | Brandon Medical Webinar

De-Risking Healthcare Projects with the MMC Modular Approach

A Brandon Medical Webinar – Presented by Richard McAuley, National Specifications Manager

Overview

Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) are central to the future of UK healthcare infrastructure, embedded within the Construction Playbook, NHS Hospital 2.0 standards, and the New Hospital Programme.

Yet MMC introduces new categories of risk: supply chain exposure, design freeze challenges, transport logistics, and complex integration within live clinical environments.

This webinar explores how to mitigate those risks.

Why This Matters

Healthcare facilities are not conventional buildings.
Operating theatres require structural load planning, infection control compliance (HTM/HBN), vibration management, and coordination of IPS/UPS, AV integration, and UCV systems.

MMC can deliver up to 50% faster completion — but only when de-risked through early supply chain involvement and modular system intelligence.
