OUR APPROACH TO

Master Planning

Master planning is more than just space allocation—it's about creating a roadmap that aligns your healthcare organization's vision with its physical environment. At CRGA Design, we understand that effective master planning requires both strategic foresight and practical implementation. Our approach ensures that your facilities evolve in step with healthcare delivery, market dynamics, and patient needs.


 
 

Our Process Overview

In master planning, "strategy drives space." We create plans that address both current needs and future vision, considering trends and market factors rather than just existing constraints. Our integrated process includes:

Strategic Visioning

We align efforts around your healthcare system's strategic vision, understanding how you'll position yourself in the competitive landscape. Progressive providers are building capabilities to manage population health by connecting care elements into a seamless system. This vision guides our operational and architectural approach.

Spatial Assessment

After establishing strategic positioning, we create an operational configuration to support it. We assess existing facilities for capacity and infrastructure viability, then analyze current operations to develop a more efficient future state.

Strategic Program Development

We define each component's role, scope, and relationship to other care elements, emphasizing the patient perspective. As healthcare becomes more consumer-driven, positive patient experiences are essential for competitive success.

Planning and Implementation

We design new buildings,  additions and renovations that optimize patient experience and operations. Multiple scenarios based on strategic goals are evaluated for feasibility, ranked with your planning committee, and developed into a multi-year implementation plan.
