MEDICAL EQUIPMENT PLANNING
Expert Planning for Your Most Vital Equipment
The ADAMS approach to medical equipment planning is unrivaled, and our clients trust us to ensure they remain on budget and on schedule. We bring a team that has expertise in hospital administration, clinical operations, architecture, equipment/technology, and project management to help clients meet their project goals.
Proven MEQ processes – Many “gold standard” industry methodologies and delivery methods were developed by our team members, and are effective, accurate, and efficient. We serve as a conduit between clinicians and the design team regarding equipment requirements and workflow. Through interactive user sessions, our experts guide users through the design process to ensure the correct equipment is planned while maintaining the design intent.
Interactive tools and technology – Our BIM experts provide tools to assist the clinical users, design team members, and the construction team. Our 3D fly-throughs and clash detection tools show how equipment will be laid out in the room during the design stage, reducing change orders and leaving clinicians confident. Our ability to link product cutsheets to the REVIT model eliminates the need for large, bulky manuals.
Financial focus – Medical equipment is often the second largest line item in a project budget, and we have developed accurate and comprehensive budgetary and financial projection tools to ensure the most efficient, effective use of your funds. Our team will evaluate the feasibility of integrating existing inventory as it relates to relocation, including potential loss of patient revenue and cost of installation and recertification. Our goal is to determine the total financial impact on the project budget and enable you to make informed decisions.
