scope of work
this consultancy project focused on converting existing office space into a cutting-edge dental training school.
the scope included creating large training spaces and classrooms, equipping them with dental simulation equipment for both prosthetic and digital simulations, establishing X-ray training suites, and designing mock clinical rooms to mimic real-life scenarios.
challenges faced
the project encountered several challenges stemming from the building's original fit-out as office accommodation.
ventilation adequacy posed a concern, requiring adjustments to meet training requirements.
fitting out X-ray facilities within space designed for offices presented logistical hurdles.
there were also IT connectivity issues, due to limited bandwidth, which compounded the challenges – as well as the time pressures that were intensified to align with student intake schedules.
outcome
our support culminated in the establishment of a flagship dental school, addressing the nationwide shortage of dental clinicians.
the consolidated facilities provide the all-necessary resources for comprehensive training within a single space, optimising efficiency.
repurposing previously vacant space within an existing healthcare asset proved highly beneficial, aligning with governmental directives to enhance healthcare education infrastructure.
