SNC-LAVALIN announced it will be undertaking
design and engineering services work as
part of the construction of the new Vaudreuil-Soulanges Hospital.
The work will be performed as part of a
multidisciplinary team assembled by Pomerleau, on behalf of the Société québécoise
des infrastructures (Quebec Infrastructure
Corporation).
“Engineering a better built environment is
at the heart of what we do for communities
all around the world,” said Ian L. Edwards,
president and CEO, SNC-Lavalin. “Few
pieces of social infrastructure have greater
value to the people they serve than hospitals.
Governments recognize in the aftermath of
the COVID-19 pandemic how important it
is to have high-quality patient care available
that is supported by world-class facilities like
the Vaudreuil-Soulanges Hospital.”
As part of a six-year contract, SNC-La-
valin’s Engineering Services group
across Quebec and its project partner Pageau
Morel inc., will provide design and engineering services for the mechanical and electrical
engineering of the hospital. Decarbonization
and digital delivery capabilities will be at the
heart of service delivery. This includes using
Building Information Modelling (BIM) to create a 3D digital representation of the building
and supporting efforts to achieve LEED building environmental certifications via efficient
use of energy, materials, and water.
Located in Vaudreuil-Dorion outside
of Montreal, the project is scheduled to open
in 2026, providing the area with 404 beds, 11
operating rooms, and an emergency room
with a capacity for 41 patients.
