East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust has partnered with NIFES, part of the Bellrock Group, for a comprehensive, estate-wide Six Facet Survey.

East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust is a large hospital estate – 200,000m2 spread across three main sites, as well as a few additional units.

NIFES is currently onsite completing an NHS Six Facets Survey and Property Appraisal, a thorough assessment of a Trust’s estates to ensure buildings and assets are compliant and up to standard.

Having been on the ground since October, with initial mobilisation taking place in September, NIFES has an average of five people working across different disciplines within the project every week.

Once completed the results of the survey will then be presented to the Trust.

Lee Brown, Head of Property Appraisal, NIFES Consulting Group, welcomes the partnership. He says:

“This contract is one of the bigger ones within the NHS and, although we haven’t worked with this particular Trust before, it’s still well within the scope of what we’re used to delivering.

East Kent Hospitals University NHS Trust came to us directly, following work we completed for a nearby Trust. We’ve built up our positive reputation in the NHS, so we get work through recommendations or when our clients move between Trusts, we continue our working relationship with them. We’re thrilled that NHS Trusts continue to put their faith in us.

Once we present survey results and recommendations, Trusts can also utilise other services within NIFES, and the wider Bellrock Group, to ensure that issues are addressed and made compliant. This can be very helpful and has helped to cement our reputation in the NHS.”

NIFES has been instrumental in helping develop the current Six Facet service since 1990. More than 80% of NHS Trusts rely on us to comply with NHS Estatecode/HBN 00-08.
