Description of activities:
To develop the project, a preliminary analysis of the bid documents—provided by the Agency and the Client—was conducted, and site inspections of hospital and non-hospital buildings were carried out based on the Agency’s availability. This process made it possible to identify critical issues and determine the most appropriate measures to implement, distinguishing between priority technical interventions (including: non-destructive testing with tracer gas to detect leaks in the plumbing systems of the Domodossola and Verbania hospitals; replacement of windows and doors; renovation of the pitched roof of Pavilion H at the Domodossola hospital; additional measures focused on the building envelope of the hospital facilities) and secondary technical measures aimed at improving the structures (including: relamping of interior and exterior lighting; replacement of asbestos-containing flooring at the Verbania Hospital; installation of a tactile paving system for the visually impaired at the Verbania Hospital; implementation of a fire detection system at the Omegna Regional Pharmacy and the Verbania Health District). In addition, the Operational Safety Plan and the Project Start-up Plan were drafted, both of which are attached to the technical project.
The technical reports and related documents were prepared in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the bid specifications, with particular attention paid to identifying strategic guidelines for the management, operation, and maintenance of the facilities from a healthcare facility management perspective. The work schedule was agreed upon with COOPSERVICE at the start of the project, and coordination meetings were scheduled.
