Comparative Analysis

Hospitals with cost or design concerns about their current building program can maximize value with HBE's "Comparative Analysis" program. This "second opinion" evaluation will provide hospital owners with the basis for making a better-informed judgment of value.

The Comparative Analysis process begins with a thorough review of the facility design, project cost and time frame. Based on that evaluation, HBE will either:

  • Propose a more efficient solution, with detailed schematic drawings and a guaranteed lump sum cost, or
  • Validate the hospital's current approach, if HBE cannot significantly improve the design in a way to maximize resources and efficiencies.
For most hospitals that request a Comparative Analysis, HBE is able to develop a more effective alternative approach from the perspectives of both design and cost. The primary benefit is that the hospital is able to gain enhanced value for its project investment.

There is no disruption to the hospital's current development efforts during a Comparative Analysis. Hospitals requesting this evaluation incur no financial obligation unless and until they sign a contract to proceed with HBE's alternative solution. HBE's Comparative Analysis includes:  
  • Detailed schematic drawings
  • Comprehensive project specifications
  • Project schedule
  • Guaranteed lump sum price for architectural design, engineering, construction and site work

A risk-free independent analysis is the best way to validate your building program. With the HBE's Comparative Analysis, you will either confirm the value of your current plan or find a more efficient and cost effective way to maximize it.
