Contract Awarded for Second Building at New Reims Hospital

The Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Reims has awarded VINCI Construction with the contract to build the second building in the New Reims Hospital complex in France. The works contract is worth a total €210 million, €157 million of which will go to VINCI Construction. The project execution has been entrusted to a consortium led by Pargade Architectes.

The works are scheduled to last 45 months, during which the hospital must remain in ordinary working order, and primarily involves the construction of a 58,000-square-meter building spanning seven floors that will accommodate 498 beds, reception and diagnosis areas, high-tech medical platforms, an inpatient zone, hospital pharmacy and logistics and technical control rooms.

The building, named after Madeleine Brès, the first French woman to obtain a medical degree, will mainly house medical activities, including chronic diseases and neuroscience. It will be connected to the existing buildings in the hospital complex to ensure continuity of flow across the site.

The New Reims Hospital project intends to upgrade the healthcare provided by the CHU, in particular thanks to cutting-edge equipment, enhanced quality of care for outpatients and an improved service for inpatients. The teams from VINCI Construction were involved in the construction of the first building for the New Reims Hospital complex.
