PROJECT MANAGEMENT CYCLE
HEALTHCARE PLANNING SERVICES
Our healthcare planning services focus on providing support in the very early phases of planning during which an organization is determining the need and feasibility of selected healthcare services. IPC Healthcare’s objective in this phase is to assist in meeting the community’s needs by helping determine a gap analysis, the appropriate size & services required.
IPC Healthcare has been consulted for many turn key hospital development projects throughout the project life cycle (Vision - Invest & Funding - Design - Build - Equip - Licensing – Recruit & Integrate - Manage & Operate). This is further to conducting due diligence for many hospitals to improve their profitability, therefore transforming near to bankrupt hospitals to highly profitable healthcare operations through eliminating unnecessary redundancies then undertaking interim management to operate these hospitals during the change management & transformation process.

PROJECT STEPS
PROJECT PLANNING
1Healthcare Planning
Assisting organizations in defining their vision first then developing a strategy or direction and allocating their resources to achieve their objectives, then, together, develop a meticulous plan for implementing the agreed-upon strategy.
2Feasibility Study and Business Planning
Once the ultimate vision is refined and the consensus is reached, we assist our clients in completing a feasibility study and business plan based on defining the target market, determining realistic use rates, and projecting the market share. Once these steps are completed, the detailed business plan can be developed.
3Operations Improvement
Optimizing operations to meet utilization goals, our process involves conducting a detailed assessment, defining recommended improvements based on best practices and developing a detailed action plan for implementation.
4Facility Planning
We believe that facility planning is a natural extension of the strategic planning process completed in the first phase of planning. We utilize an operations-based approach to deliver safe and efficient care.
5Site and Facility Master Planning
Often completed in conjunction with an architectural firm, this activity includes developing a site utilization plan, preparing an organized plan for developing facilities on the site and assembling a detailed phasing plan.
6Functional Programming
Developing a detailed operational plan for proposed departments and documenting the proposed optimal characteristics or operational systems (e.g., the scope of services, hours of operation, workload volumes, staffing, operational systems, functional relationships, design considerations).
7Space Programming
Based on the functional program, this step involves developing a room-by-room space listing documenting the quantity of each type of room, the recommended size and any special requirements.
8Equipment Planning & Biomedical Life Cycle Management
This service is for projects that need equipment assessment, which we handle using surveys of existing equipment to evaluate their reuse potential and identifying new equipment requirements. We also facilitate procurement, acquisition, delivery, installation, calibration, PPM’s & quality management.
9Information Technology Planning
Because information technology is becoming an increasingly important component of healthcare delivery planning; we assist clients with identifying needs, selecting vendors, overseeing the implementation and validating the complete and proper installation.
10Pre-Opening Planning and Commissioning
These IPC Healthcare services support clients in preparing for the opening of a new or renovated facility. Typically, services begin one to two years before the scheduled opening depending on the size of the facility. In this phase, significant investment is made in careful planning to ensure flawless mastery in patient care delivery.
11Pre-Opening Planning
In this crucial phase, the organizational blueprint for the facility is developed. This includes the organizational policies and procedures as well as each department’s individual operating plan, which is the comes from a team of IPC Healthcare specialized professionals contributing to their expertise to complete the operating plan.
12Commissioning
Begins approximately three to six months prior to the opening, IPC Healthcare’s commissioning phase is the coordination of all activities related to the medical facility’s activation and occupancy. These activities include final cleaning, placement of all furniture and equipment, staff hiring and training, simulations and mock audits & drills, acquiring the necessary permits, licenses and testing of emergency and safety procedures.
13Opening
This is when the hospital services are initiated and open to the public through a comprehensive value-driven PR awareness campaign. Significant efforts are invested to address issues that may arise so that care is delivered seamlessly to patients.
