We specialise in the Health sectors built environment and our approach produces pleasant and functional facilities that improve patient comfort and help healthcare providers attract and retain staff.
We are committed to improving the performance of estates in the public and private sectors, through acquisition, partnering, construction management and contracts. We work with individual NHS trusts and private healthcare providers across the UK.
With Trusts undergoing demanding change, Blu managers offer the skills and experience needed to lead major transformation programmes and fill critical gaps when capacity is an issue.
As Change Agents, Blu Building Consultants have a wealth of experience across all areas of construction management policy and practice.
Our clients are under pressure to deliver, so we share that pressure with them, utilising our considerable project management expertise to ensure that deadlines are met and project objectives are successfully delivered on time and on budget.
Blu only employ passionate people who genuinely care about the projects they complete.
Without the generosity of our supporters we wouldn’t be able to keep making the difference when it matters the most. The team at Blu Building Consultants have supported us for a number of years, being part of our Business Club, sponsoring events and even making festive donations via our Amazon wishlist. We really do appreciate their support.
Blu Building Consultants worked with us to refurbish our new Letchworth Wellbeing Centre. As a new initiative for the organisation Blu provided advice and guidance that was appropriate in language and in conjunction with a strong willingness to understand the importance of the centres infrastructure to meet service user needs. Due to this positive experience we would certainly recommend and would consider utilising BLU Consultants on future projects.
Blu have always provided a highly professional, diligent and flexible approach in working in partnership with our organisation. Their key strengths lie in their ability to draw on a vast knowledge of Estates transformation projects, combined with professional resources, that consistently achieve high quality work within tight timescales. The Blu Team display a strong ethos of partnership and have good experience of working closely with the clients teams, approaching this with a real hands-on ethos, ensuring that the views of our operational teams are always well represented and bringing particular specialist expertise to mental health and learning disability projects.
We, the Queen Victoria Memorial nursing and therapy teams, want to express our gratitude for your workers’ dedication and hard work in the unit. The unit looks fantastic, and we appreciate the effort the contractors have put in to maintain it. We understand that working in a busy unit with patients and staff around can be challenging, but we are pleased that the communication between both teams is leading to minimal disruption. Once again, a big thank you for all your hard work!
Blu have an exemplary attention to detail and high expectations for all aspects of the project they are overseeing. Whether it is setting up the project correctly as project managers, building staff and patient engagement initiatives, ensuring the product is going to meet the standards of its context, or in project delivery and cash flow, Blu apply equal dedication and provide high quality services.
This is a pleasant, controlled scheme which deserves to win. For people of this demographic it is very, very good. It has been very thoughtfully designed, with good signage and use of colour.
Blu worked with us on the project and ensured they kept our clinicians updated at all times. They always made themselves available when needed guidance and really took on board that clinical and operational work had to take on priority. I am absolutely sure that without Blu we would not have the amazing building we have today.
We have attained great experience and understanding of the mounting challenges our clients are facing within this sector. We also possess the desire to improve healthcare outcomes, to meet client requirements and expectations.
In the immediate future healthcare providers struggle with the need to balance budgets, while still satisfying high levels of care to service users. In all of this Blu Building has the knowledge and experience to help our clients make well informed decisions with regard to healthcare facilities. We have the skills and the professionalism to help our clients rethink the models of service provision and to execute best in class solutions that still represent value for money.
