Property Condition Assessments of the HSE Estate

Health Service Executive (HSE)

HSE Estates is responsible for maximising the value of HSE properties and facilities, to ensure that appropriate infrastructure is in place when and where required in order to enhance patient, client and staff wellbeing, by managing the organisations EUR10 billion capital infrastructure and the annual capital plan.
The Estates directorate is lead by the National Head of Estates. Property information is maintained on a property data base under the direction of a Corporate Estates Manager (Lead for Property) and the Assistant National Director Capital and Property.
Local estate management is delivered through the 4 regional offices of Assistant National Directors of Estates as follows:
HSE Dublin North East, HSE Dublin mid Leinster, HSE West and HSE South. These regional offices are further subdivided into a total of 11 Estate Managers in Area Estate Offices.
Each local Estate Manager manages the delivery of estate related services in their area. This includes management of Capital Projects, Property Management, Fire Safety, Health and Safety (Infrastructural Risk), Environmental Services (Water, Waste, Energy, etc.), Maintenance and Technical Support to Service Managers.
The Corporate Estates Office develops protocols, policies and strategies, provides advice and support to the local Estates Offices and the non-HSE agencies, manages national programmes and projects and liaises with the HSE senior management, the Department of Health and other external agencies and bodies on these and other issues.
It is critical to the ongoing delivery of HSE services that the physical condition of the HSE Estate is continuously and accurately assessed and maintained to ensure it continues to be fit for purpose and safe for patients, staff and public. It is now the HSE intention to carry out such an assessment of all its property assets on a national basis. It now seeks to engage the required expertise to deliver these assessments and to develop an evidence based economic model to guide future investment in upgrading and maintaining these assets. This exercise will be progressed on a phased basis.
The approach to the provision of these conditional assessments will be guided by international norms such as โ€˜NHS Estates A risk-based methodology for establishing and managing backlogโ€™.
All data arising from the conditional assessments will be required to be imported into the existing HSE property database.
The appointed consultancy will also provide expertise to develop a methodology and deliver a system to facilitate on-going modelling by the HSE of multiple funding scenarios and investment strategies including trade-offs between different capital and maintenance funding levels in the HSE Estate. This will enable a prioritised, incremental investment plan to transform the Estate to a defined condition to be developed. It is also intended that a annual maintenance cost to maintain the Estate to this defined condition would be established as part of the service.
It is intended that the condition survey will be carried out in 3 lots on a phased basis:

โ€” Older People;
โ€” Mental Health Services;
