Strategic Facilities Planning

Health Planning Solutions assists clients in understanding their renovation and expansion needs through the translation of strategic planning into facilities requirements. Our strategic planning process is action-oriented resulting in the development of facilities specifications and clinical-service line space requirements based on market-specific volume projections.

First we, conduct an analysis of your present market position, identifying your current market share by service line.

We then engage you in a planning process informed by market specific data which surfaces opportunities which your organization might consider offering.

Next, we project clinical service line-specific demand over the next 5-10 years across all inpatient and outpatient settings. We use demographic data, competitor analysis, and state-of-the art forecasting tools. A detailed analysis of your current and future medical staff and other professional clinical resources is an integral part of our forecasting methodology. We also take into account the impact of changing medical technology.

Financial analysis is then applied to determine the feasibility of the service configuration that results from the demand analysis. By focusing on return on investment and other financial measures, as well as market demand, we can determine the total feasibility of the projected service package.

Once the most feasible package has been determined, we translate anticipated service-line forecasts into space planning parameters. These results are used to develop facility options as you proceed with your facility investment decisions.

Health Planning Solutions works collaboratively with you. We develop our work plan in conjunction with your financial, strategic planning, and facilities management resources. Our intent is to inform and add value to your ongoing activities in these areas rather than to duplicate those efforts.

The result of our Strategic Facilities Planning process is a rational approach to growth which builds on your strengths, meets the health care needs of your communities, and assures a fair return on investment.
