facilities that enable the
delivery of quality health
services and a feasible
return on investment.
Our hospital planners are
among the few certified

Market Research & Feasibility Studies

Certified healthcare economists
and management consultants will
conduct field market research,
technical & financial analysis to
determine the economic &
technical feasibility of the hospital
project. Our extensive database on
the health sector, together with
automated market analysis
software tools are utilized to
examine the opportunity of a viable
return on investment before any
investment is committed.

Functional & Space Programs

Over-sized hospitals incur unnecessary capital & running cost.
Undersized hospitals are functionally deficient. Maps determines the
Right Size for your project through detailed analysis of projected
workloads and room throughput assumptions. Automated software
applications with built-in calculation formulas generate functional &
space programs that matches the exact requirements of the project.

A robust hospital design is

the result of a thorough
functional analysis of the
hospital projects
components and their
multiple requirements. No
two hospital projects are the Procedure
same. The medical planning
Zone
concept for each project is
tailored to reflect the
unique mix of contextual,
functional, budgetary and
technical requirements
specific to the project.
Our planners are skilled in
analyzing the particular
needs of each project and
developing a medical
planning concept that best
fits these needs.
If your vision is to build a
healthcare facility that
reflects the latest trends in
healthcare design, maps
can assist you in laying the
solid foundation to your
vision: An innovative,
functional, and costeffective planning concept

Medical Equipment Placement Layouts

Equipment Placement Drawings illustrate the location and
distribution of medical equipment and furniture throughout the
hospital. Spaces are furnished according to international hospital
standards. Room floor areas, equipment maneuverability, and
critical dimensions of activity & circulation spaces are examined to
ascertain the functionality of design. Electromechanical service
requirements are listed & coordinated with other engineering
disciplines to ensure optimal design development.

E q u i p m e n t
placement layouts
are produced
utilizing automated
planning softwares
comprising a large
database of
planning templates
& tools. Each space

Medical Equipment Specifications

Technical Specifications of
medical equipment &
furniture are stored in data
bases that are continuously
updated to ensure they meet
the latest medical
technology advances.
Equipment are specified
generically or according to
the clients preferences.
Specification lots are
packaged according to their
tendering structure.

Supervision over Installation and Commissioning

Certified biomedical engineers are
deployed on-site to supervise the
installation, testing and
commissioning of medical equipment
and to ensure that contractors
conform to their contractual
obligations towards the client.
