Infrastructure Ontario and Sinai Health System have shortlisted four companies for a P3 to build and finance six key areas of Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, Canada.

Based on a request for qualifications process that began in August 2015, the following companies were prequalified:

• Bondfield Construction Company Ltd.
• EllisDon Capital Inc.
• PCL Constructors Canada Inc.
• Walsh Canada

This third phase of the publicly owned hospital's multi-year redevelopment involves the following elements: doubling the size of the emergency department to accommodate an expected increase in patient volume over the coming years; adding 18 state-of-the-art operating rooms, including a new robotics-assisted suite and 3D imaging technology; adding 18 beds in the intensive care unit for a total to 36, upgrading equipment and improving access to the emergency department; and adding 28 beds to the in-patient unit.

Additionally the selected bidder will have to renovate a central out-patient area in the ambulatory clinic, and redevelop a full-service, in-house medical devices reprocessing department.

Dr. Eric Hoskins, Minister of Health and Long-Term Care
