Healthcare Construction in the UK - Industry Market Research Report

Constructive support: A plunge in UK health expenditure is pushing down revenue in 2023-24

Companies in the Healthcare Construction industry construct, repair, maintain and alter health and social care buildings and facilities on behalf of private and public-sector entities. While private finance plays a vital role in the funding of healthcare real estate and infrastructure development, the capital departmental expenditure limit (DEL) of the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) underpins healthcare construction procurement in the National Health Service (NHS) and among NHS trusts. Healthcare estate provides the foundations for good health and social care delivery. As such, capital investment funding for healthcare construction projects has remained at the forefront of government policy, despite cyclical patterns in private equity bankrolling.

Contractors in this industry are responsible for the new construction, renovation, alteration, maintenance and repair of healthcare buildings and facilities on behalf of private- and public-sector entities. Buildings and facilities relevant to the industry include hospitals, clinics, medical research facilities, welfare centres, rehabilitation centres, hospices and psychiatric homes.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
