3 1) Purpose of this Document The purpose of this project brief is to provide an overview of Stage 1 of the project and seeks agreement, at a high level, on how the work will be managed. 2) Project Overview a) Project objectives The main objective for Stage One is to prepare a Strategic Assessment and Indicative Business Case that will provide an early indication of the best way forward to address issues with the facilities at the Dunedin Hospital campus. b) Context and Background A number of buildings on the Southern District Health Board s 1 Dunedin Hospital Campus site are not considered economically viable for relifing including the Children s Pavilion Building (built 1945), the Psychiatric Services Building (built 1935), the Fraser Building (built 1940) and the Clinical Services Building (built 1960s). Recent urgent maintenance issues with the existing facilities include the water tightness of the Clinical Services Building and a required roof replacement for the Fraser Building. For instance the Clinical Service Building s does not meet the standards for electrical wiring and protection of patient treatment areas (cardiac Protected Status ASNZ 3003:2011), nor for infection control and management of dirty laundry. In 2014, Dunedin Hospital lost its College of Intensive Care Medicine accreditation for specialist training. And in October 2015 the pathology lab and mortuary were closed due to asbestos with a cleanup also required in other areas of the building. Southern DHB commissioned Chow Hill & Sapere to develop a Service and Facilities Strategy for Dunedin Hospital facilities which it completed in March Southern DHB also recently completed development of a whole of health, system-wide Southern Strategic Health Plan It is mandatory that all major capital projects follow the standards and processes required by the Better Business Cases Model 2 (BBC). The Southern Partnership Group (SPG) has been commissioned to govern the redevelopment of hospital facilities for Southern District Health Board Dunedin including $11.5M of urgent interim works at the Dunedin and Wakari hospital campuses that was recently approved. The interim works include changes to the Gastroenterology and Audiology facilities as well as a programme of deferred maintenance. A further xxxx has been reserved in the Health Capital Envelope for redevelopment of the Dunedin Hospital Intensive Care Unit subject to 1 Southern DHB was created in 2010 as the result of a merger of Southland DHB and Otago DHB and employs approximately 4,500 staff. The DHB provides health services to a population of over 313,000 people (2015/16 estimate) who live in their catchment area which includes Invercargill City, Queenstown - Lakes District, Gore, rural Southland, Clutha, Central Otago, Maniototo, Waitaki District and Dunedin City. 2 BBC guidance is mandatory for all capital expenditure, lease and asset disposal proposal undertaken by Government Departments or Crown entities that require Cabinet approval (Cabinet Office Circular CO (10) 2:Capital Asset Management in Departments and Crown Entities Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 3

4 Southern DHB developing an Implementation Business Case that is approved by the Capital Investment Committee. Southern DHB will not be able to fund any of the capital development. A $300M potential capital cost has been signalled in the DHB s capital intentions for this project. Based on other rebuilds this project is expected to take 7-10 years to complete. 3) Reasons for this Project a) Mandate The Ministers of Health and Finance have approved the formation of the Southern Partnership Group to oversee the redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital (HR ). The Ministers of Health and Finance (HR ) also approved the urgent interim works including the redevelopment of the Gastroenterology and Audiology facilities and a programme of deferred maintenance. 3 These works and any additional approved capital projects for Southern DHB in Dunedin will be subject to the oversight of the Southern Partnership Group to ensure they align with the overall redevelopment. For Stage 1 of the project the Ministry of Health holds legal authority for any contracts. b) Project Drivers and Rational The Better Business Case process is focused on being smarter about how we invest for change as well as deliver better services and better outcomes for New Zealanders. It is based on robust planning, analysis, decision making, implementation and review. Strategies to manage expected growth, service changes, whole of service alignment and financial viability will need to be fully explored and agreed prior to approval of any capital works. The health partnership group model has elsewhere proved to be an effective and successful mechanism for ensuring that the business cases developed are robust, the outcomes are appropriate to the needs of the local population and that the options being put forward provide best value for public money. c) Key Benefits The key outcomes and benefits of this project will be covered in detail as part of producing the Strategic Assessment and Initial Business Case. 3 Gastroenterology - a redevelopment on Level 8 of the south wing of the Ward Block. The Audiology service will relocate to the Wakari campus. Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 4

5 4) Project Deliverables and Approach a) Project Scope The following table delineates the scope of this project. In Scope Determining the pathway forward to address issues with the facilities at the Dunedin Hospital campus. Progress reports to SPG on the approved urgent interim works at the Dunedin and Wakari campuses and any other relevant capital works Review of an Implementation Business Case for the Dunedin Hospital ICU and any subsequent progress reports Completing the requirements for Health Capital Approvals (based on the Better Business Case Model) and production of key documentation Development of a financial model for Southern DHB with a focus on hospital services RFPs for undertaking the Strategic Assessment and Indicative Business Cases Project Assurance Out of Scope (but has linkages to) Implementation of the Southern Strategic Health Plan The University of Otago s master site plan Health Reports and Cabinet papers (MoH/ Treasury) Southern DHB operational arrangements for the urgent interim works and ICU redevelopment (e.g. projects and internal steering groups) Processes related to CIC and the signoff processes required by Cabinet and the Ministers of Health and Finance. Regional Service Planning b) Project Approach The project approach is based on the requirements of the Better Business Cases Model. Appendix One summarises how the Better Business Case Model is applied to Health Capital Business Cases. A core team of Southern DHB and Ministry of Health staff will work in partnership to support the project. Consultants will be used, either where suitable expertise is not available or as required as part of the business case process. Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 5

6 c) High-Level Milestones and Deliverables Within the above scope, the initial timelines for the Stage 1 are listed. A more detailed project schedule will be developed as the RFPs are completed. # High-Level Milestone or Deliverable Target Date A Stage 1 Strategic Planning Phase 1.

Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 6

7 d) Post Implementation Review Refer to Appendix for further information on the Health Business Cases. d) Assurance Assurance requirements are built into the Better Business Cases model. 1) A Risk Profile Assessment (RPA) will need to be completed at the commencement of the project. 2) Subject to the outcome of the RPA, Gateway Reviews 5 will need to be completed and the outcome discussed with SPG in December. These are independent and confidential peer review process that examine projects and programmes at key points in their lifecycles to assess their progress and to rate the likelihood of successful delivery of their outcomes. The key decision points (or gates ) are: Gate 0: Strategic Assessment Gate 1: Business Justification & Options - Indicative Business Case Gate 2: Delivery Strategy - Detailed Business Case Gate 3: Investment Approach Gate 4: Readiness for Service Gate 5: Operational Review & Benefits Realisation It is likely the project will be deemed of sufficient risk that it will be required to complete Gates 0 and 1 as part of Stage 1 of the project. The Southern Partnership Group will determine what other peer reviews of work are required. The Capital Investment Committee will review the Strategic Assessment and Indicative Business Case produced by the project. They will provide their independent advice to the Ministers of Health and Finance on these documents as part of the sign-off process. 5) Stakeholders, Organisational Implications and Handover a) Key Stakeholders The following stakeholders (internal and external) have been identified as playing a key role in the success of this project. This will be expanded on in a formal communications plan.

9 Dunedin City Council Southern DHB community/ patients Media Rural Hospital Trusts, PHO and Alliance South and unions. Dunedin Hospital is a significant asset to the city and the Dunedin campus site is centrally located on a constrained site that is also bound by State Highway 1 on Cumberland Street. Central to any service planning work and the consumer of services at any new facilities The local media already have a strong focus on reporting on Southern DHB matters including service issues, the formation of the Southern Partnership Group. Southern DHB s financial deficit and the work of the Commissioners.

10 c) Handover Approach The main deliverables from Stage 1 are the key business case documents and service plan for Dunedin which will be inputs to subsequent stages of the project. 6) Risks a) Project Dependencies There will need to be a review by the health planners and business case writer of key reports already commissioned and produced by Southern DHB including the Service and Facilities Strategy document and Strategic Health Plan The RFPs associated with the Strategic Assessment and Indicative Business Case will invite respondents to outline the processes they will run with Southern DHB within the set timeframes. Minimum levels of engagement will be specified. It is currently assumed they can be completed within the indicative timeframes otherwise they will delay the work. b) Other Key Risks The following risks have been identified as having the potential to delay progress of the project and/or impact on the ability to achieve the deliverables. Risk Description (If X happens, there is a risk of Y, meaning Z impact) The initial timelines assume that the work already completed by Southern DHB will shorten the usual processes in the Stage 1 of the project. Not all resource has yet been appointed to support the project and planning for involving Southern DHB staff in the Strategic Assessment Phase needs to be worked through as part of the RFP process. There has been relatively little communication with key stakeholders to date as the project has worked through its establishment processes. Misinformation may already be in circulation. The Health Planners appointed by RFP to work on Stage 1 will need to keep up to date with the work to implement the Southern Strategic Health Plan Risk Rating Medium Medium Medium Medium How Risk Will Be Managed The consultants will commence their work with a review of all relevant documentation produced by Southern DHB. They will be asked to meet with the SPG in February. As part of the RFP respondents are to outline the process they propose to run with Southern DHB. The Steering Group will be able to focus on the arrangements for involving Southern DHB staff. SPG will be kept updated at its meetings. Cover in communications plan and develop material on the scope of the project and key dates for wider dissemination. Create a website with publicly accessible information to be managed by the MoH s communications resource with links to Southern DHB communications. Will be managed as part of monthly reports to steering group and communications plan. Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 10

11 Given the long timeframes involved in capital projects there is a risk that the scope of work and approvals given are relitigated in the future. Medium Manage through good documentation and full consultation processes 7) Funding and Resourcing a) Funding Arrangements On 29 October the project was granted $1.6M from the Health Capital Envelope until 30 June This budget will be used for project establishment, supporting the Southern Partnership Group (including travel and meetings), Ministry of Health staff costs, assurance processes like Gateway Reviews as well as funding for additional project team resources (refer overpage).

15 Appendix One: Health Business Case Early engagement A business case approach encourages early engagement with stakeholder to confirm: Fit with strategy and need to invest The way forward with short-listed options That the best value option is affordable and deliverable and that the risks are acceptable Benefits of using the business case approach The key benefits for our stakeholders include: Decision makers better strategic alignment, value for money and evidence based assurance. Project managers early engagement and influence on direction. Business case developers clear expectations with flexibility and permission to take a risk-based, right size approach. Reviews early engagement and common language Stakeholder and public early engagement and influence on direction. Private sector suppliers certainty of implementation. How the Health Business Case approach works The Health Business Case approach is an adaption of the NZ Treasury s Better Business Case (BBC) model, which provides a structured way to develop an investment case in an inclusive way. The HBC will follow the principles of Treasury s BBC process using the key deliverables; strategic case, indicative business case, detailed business case and implementation business case. These are structured into 5 case models being strategic, economic, and commercial, financial and management. Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 15

16 Strategic Planning Phase (approx.12 months) Strategic Service Plan Reviews whole of health service operations over the next 10 years, providing a foundation for strategic clinical service planning and site specific capital developments. Ensuring the needs of the community are met by the DHB as an integrated and self-sufficient health service with integrated clinical service streams across a DHB. Providing a strategic view of service configuration, models of care and key enablers, determine the need going forward and possible strategies to manage growth, service changes, whole of service alignment and financial viability. Strategic Assessment (Business Case) Determines the key problems. It also provides stakeholders with a high degree of confidence that the investment they are considering aligns with the organisations strategic priorities identified in the strategic Service Plan and responds to a true business need. Stakeholders can consider the rationale for a proposed investment at an early stage and determine if the proposal warrants further business case development. Informed by ILM Proposal Phase (approx.12 Months) Service Plan Service delivery models are an adaption of an organisation's model of care and describes 'where and how work is to be carried out. Service Delivery models suit the local environment and resources to best meet the overarching organisational requirements. Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 16

17 Masterplan The purpose of a Master Plan Study is to identify and evaluate all the project planning options for the facility with consideration of the services to be provided, demographics, future trends, existing facilities, capital and recurrent costs and implementation strategy. Model of Care A model of care outlines best practice patient care delivery through the application of a set of service principles across identified clinical streams and patient flow continuums Indicative Business Case Provides decision-makers with an early indication for the preferred way forward. It confirms the case for change and the need to invest, identifies a wide range of options and recommends a preferred way forward for further development of the investment proposal, supported by a preferred short-listed options for further analysis. Planning and Evaluation Phase (approx.12 months) Feasibility The feasibility study is a detailed analysis of a preferred facility development strategy as determined in the master plan study. It should enable a DHB to fully determine the outcome, which will provide the most, cost efficient and effective delivery of its services. The preferred options for developing facilities to accommodate service delivery can then be determined. Functional Brief A description of the function to be accommodated and the relationships between functions for a proposed capital project. It should identify how the project meets the objectives and policies of the organisation Detailed Business Case The primary purpose of the Detailed Business Case is to recommend a preferred solution that optimises value for money. Implementation (approx. 12 months) Procurement Study Design development Implementation Business Case Delivery (approx. 18months 3 years) Construction Redevelopment of Dunedin Hospital Project Brief Stage 1 17
