A well-informed estates strategy enables organisations to plan ahead and make best use of their assets – to facilitate service improvements, commercial stability or growth, as well as drive efficiency.

The benefit for clients is a complete picture, so boards have information for informed investment and divestment decision-making and to maximise utilisation of their highest quality facilities. Prima 200’s difference lies in its ability to place strategic aims at the heart of its work; making property an enabler not the decider of how and where services run.

Prima 200’s key areas of work include the understanding of health economies, service modelling, operational requirements, public sector accounting, land and property disposals and efficient management of estate – all of which inform its approach to strategic property planning. Having developed 15 new healthcare buildings and assisted in the delivery of a number of development and consultancy projects, the Prima 200 team has in depth knowledge of the local health and social care estate and can use this to support an organisation’s estates strategy, delivering flexible and affordable property solutions to increase space utilisation and maximise efficiency.

The team’s experience includes work with commissioners, providers and estate owners and managers including PCTs, Strategic Partnering Boards (SPBs), NHS England, Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), Foundation Trusts (FTs) and aspirant FTs.
