Introduction:
With the current ongoing pandemic of COVID 19, Australian governments is initiating a prompt response to cope with this emergency through delivering $2.4 billion health package to protect people and community. One of the aims of this package is to manage the demand on the health system and assist the community to act against COVID19. Part of this fund is directed towards supporting and increasing the capacity of the health sector in NSW. This includes launching urgent projects to counterattack the unprecedented conditions and to limit the spread of the virus.

This fund for the NSW includes the four main key projects as follow:
1. Project 1: The construction of new fully equipped medical facilities to relieve the pressure on existing facilities. To do so, the government has been advised to follow
modular and prefab architecture and construction.
2. Project 2: Provide the necessary ventilators, accessories, installation, testing and other supplies that will serve the current needs where the health system capacity has
been stretched to the maximum.
3. Project 3: Construct new hotel to provide proper accommodation for the staff working in the centre as well as providing secure quarantine place for growing
Covid19 cases.
4. Project 4: Connecting roadway to link the new medical center with the free way/city

The details of the above four parts are as follow:
1. Fully equipped hospital with up to 2000 beds. The work will start with 1250 beds immediately and then a second phase with 1000 beds. You need to recommend the
route and the contract accordingly.

• The hospital to include advance intensive care unit with up to date standards
• The Hospital to ensure high quality standards with no infection or outbreak could take place.
• The hospital is intended to accommodate all COVID 19 cases (growing cases are also considered).
• Up to date laboratories
• The hospital will remain in operation even after this virus pandemic comes to an end (hopefully ASAP!) where facilities will be utilised to serve the community afterwards for next decades.

2. The fund also included immediate buying of 2500 ventilators as a matter of emergency. The government has no options to get these from overseas.
3. The project includes appointing and employing qualified doctors, nurses and admin staff to run the hospital. The government may conduct this task or can subletting to a local HR company? You may need to recommend an approach and explain why?
4. The plan includes the construction a basic hotel (next to the medical center) that provides accommodation for all working staff as well as to quarantine Covid 19
cases.

•  The hotel has a maximum capacity of 300 rooms (5 story building) with and equipped with all necessary facilities to support the staff during the pandemic period and will remain in service for the same purpose through the post pandemic period
•  It is equipped with all necessary facilities including kitchen, dining, food court, gym, swimming pool and others to ensure convenient residency.
•   Proper isolation section is attached to the hotel and used to quarantine the Covid 19 cases
•   The two parts (staff accommodation and quarantine part) can be constructed concurrently and independently with minimum interconnectivity.

5. The project also includes urgent pavement work to construct a 3 KM carriage way to connect the hospital and the hotel to the main freeway. This includes a dual carriage way construction road with 2 lanes each
