What the project involved
The AEGIS Day Procedure Unit at Murdoch in Perth, Western Australia, is a private day-surgery facility delivering elective procedures across multiple specialties. The handover Procom supported captured the facility's surgical infrastructure, sterilisation services, ward fit-out, and supporting building services in 287 manual sections. The compilation followed the Australian Health Facility Guidelines (AusHFG) where applicable and the operator's own infection-control documentation requirements for the surgical and post-anaesthesia care areas.
The handover challenge
Health-sector handovers in private day-surgery facilities sit at the intersection of three regimes: standard building handover (electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, fire), AusHFG-aligned clinical documentation, and the operator's accreditation evidence for bodies like the Australian Council on Healthcare Standards (ACHS). The integration challenge is that those three regimes have overlapping evidence — a fire system commissioning record is also an evacuation-plan evidence item, an HVAC commissioning is also an infection-control evidence item — and the same document needs to be discoverable from multiple paths.
How Procom delivered
Procom built the manual under a health-sector template with cross-reference indexes between the building-services tree and the clinical-documentation tree. Subcontractor portals were issued by discipline; the review team validated each submission against both the building-services checklist and the relevant clinical-evidence requirement. The final electronic manual exposed two navigation paths — discipline-led (for the FM team) and clinical-led (for the accreditation reviewer) — drawn from the same underlying document library.
- Dual-index health-sector template applied (building + clinical).
- Cross-reference indexes auto-generated from the manual tree.
- Asset register tagged for both FM maintenance and clinical accreditation.
- Sister project — AEGIS Health Day Surgery — handed over from the same template on the same site.
Outcomes
- 287 sections compiled with dual-navigation paths.
- Accreditation evidence located by clinical reviewer without document re-issue.
- Two AEGIS projects delivered from the same template — proof of cross-project reuse.
What this proves
AEGIS Murdoch shows how Procom handles handovers where the manual has to satisfy more than one reader audience from the same document set. Health-sector projects — public and private — typically have this multi-audience requirement, and the platform's cross-reference indexing is what makes it workable.
