Laing has preferred bidder status
|
John Laing has secured preferred bidder status for two joint venture healthcare projects worth £1.35bn.
The infrastructure group is to build a new facility at the University Hospital of North Staffordshire, costing £350m.
Together with support services partner Sodexho, the project will also see it create a new community facility for the North Stoke Primary Care Trust.
Laing is also part of the consortium to refurbish St Bartholomew's and the Royal London hospitals in the capital.
This £1bn project will run for 38 years and is the UK's largest private finance initiative (PFI) scheme to date.
The North Staffordshire project, costing £350m, is also PFI.
Laing chief executive Andy Friend said: "This success comes at the end of a year in which we have made very significant progress in the healthcare sector."
