NOVARTIS MEDICAL CENTER
Project Overview
The Novartis Medical Center project, officially titled the Additional Bioreactor Project, is a specialized pharmaceutical facility located at 8 Tuas Bay Lane, Singapore. This high-value industrial development involves extensive additions and alterations to an existing light industrial site, transforming it into a state-of-the-art biomanufacturing center. The scope includes the erection of a new four-storey building, a two-storey central utility block, and several critical support structures such as a wastewater treatment shed, CIP shed, and a single-storey waste management facility—all meticulously planned to enhance production capacity and operational efficiency. Valued at approximately USD 500 million, the project represents Novartis’ commitment to expanding its biopharmaceutical capabilities in Asia. The development integrates advanced engineering systems and sustainability features in line with global healthcare and environmental standards.
Our Role
Trusted Expertise
In the Novartis Medical Center project, our role was instrumental in delivering end-to-end BIM support for the MEP scope, with a strong focus on HVAC systems. We were responsible for modeling HVAC equipment, rerouting and remodeling duct layouts, and generating coordinated construction and shop drawings that aligned with project specifications. Our team conducted regular clash checks, resolved interdisciplinary conflicts, and ensured seamless integration of revised equipment models based on actual supplier data. We also managed equipment scheduling, detailed layouts, and quantity take-offs while maintaining model accuracy throughout multiple design revisions. Additionally, by attending BIM progress, clash coordination, and design meetings, we ensured timely communication and alignment with consultants, contractors, and the client team—contributing directly to the project's technical precision and smooth execution.
