Why We Were Appointed:
Faction was selected for our experience in healthcare projects, stakeholder engagement, and ability to coordinate complex design and fit-out requirements. Our collaborative approach ensured the clinic met both operational and community expectations.
Client Challenge:
The Eastern Shore of Hobart lacked a permanent BreastScreen Tasmania clinic, relying solely on annual mobile units. There was a need to:
Improve screening access and capacity for local communities
Deliver a purpose-built, client-focused facility
Ensure operational efficiency while providing privacy and comfort for clients
Results / Outcomes / Metrics:
First permanent mammography screening clinic on Hobart’s Eastern Shore, replacing the annual mobile unit visit
Increased public screening capacity, freeing mobile units to visit rural and regional locations
Significant boost to access and screening rates in Clarence and Sorell local government areas
Improved client experience through private, comfortable facilities
Demonstrated collaboration between Faction, architects, contractors, DoH, and stakeholders to deliver a meaningful community project
Public recognition from Minister for Health, Jacquie Petrusma, for contribution to life-saving health services.
