New Royal Adelaide Hospital

Introba provided mechanical, medical gases, electrical, nurse call, fire protection, fire engineering, hydraulic, vertical transportation, and sustainability services for the Royal Adelaide Hospital in Adelaide, SA, Australia.

With 800 beds, the new Royal Adelaide Hospital has been delivered as a Private Public Partnership (PPP) and will care for an estimated 85,000 inpatients and 400,000 outpatients annually, becoming a super-site for major emergencies in South Australia, such as heart attacks and strokes, as well as serving as the complex multi-trauma destination for the state. 

The project embedded significant innovations throughout the 176,00 m² facility, including disaster response, N+1 provision of engineering services, pandemic treatment, integration of AGVs to assist with housekeeping supplies, and a high standard of seismic and structural design, sustainability, and ICT systems. It also includes a retail precinct, a childcare center, and an Aboriginal Health Unit. 

SA Health has implemented one of the first comprehensive end-to-end ICT systems in a single Australian hospital, with patient ID used to assist in wayfinding, appointment tracking, meal selection, car parking, patient entertainment, education, medical records, and treatment. 

Introba (formerly Integral Group) was involved in all design and construction stages, providing SA Health with independent engineering and sustainability services and technical advice for mechanical, medical gases, electrical, nurse call, fire protection, fire engineering, hydraulic, and vertical transportation systems. Introba was engaged in the role for over a decade, starting in 2008 and completing the project in 2018.
