Harborview Medical Center

Seattle, Washington, USA

Using sophisticated forecasting methods, The Innova Group updated Harborview Medical Center’s Master Plan, aligning campus development with their on-going mission of delivering high quality healthcare to greater Seattle’s most vulnerable patients.

Major Institutional Master Plan Update

Harborview Medical Center is a tertiary care hospital providing regional services for trauma and burn care for a four-state region. As a community hospital affiliated with The University of Washington, the Medical Center provides a full range of outpatient and inpatient healthcare services and research to a wide demographic spectrum of the Seattle area population.

The Innova Group analyzed historical user demographics, workloads, and service lines, and forecasted user populations and services. This analysis – along with architectural and engineering assessments – drove the master planning efforts on the Medical Center campus. Unique analysis and solutions were developed for:

  • Energy systems
  • Seismic upgrades
  • Urban planning and linkage to mass transit
  • Facility regeneration

Additionally, the master planning options developed, honored, and built upon the work of the original Major Institutional Master Plan (MIMP) and its planned and potential capital improvement projects.
