Programme: given the risks associated with the current arrangements, there is a need to deliver the project as quickly as possible. Quality: the project will require to comply with all applicable healthcare guidance and achieve the Achieving Excellence Design Evaluation Tool (AEDET) pre-defined target criteria across all categories. Sustainability: as the preferred option is a new build there will be a requirement to achieve British Research Establishment Environment Assessment Method (BREEAM) ’excellent’. Site: as the preferred option is a new build within a live environment, delivery of the project will be restricted and constrained.
