Skanska has successfully signed a significant contract with Sutter Health to develop an ambulatory surgery center and a specialty clinic. This project holds a contract value of USD 55 million, approximately SEK 600 million, and it will positively impact the order bookings in the US for early 2025.
Project Overview and Features
The anticipated project will transform an existing 60,000 square foot office building into a modern medical facility.

This facility will feature four operating rooms and three procedure rooms, alongside a fully equipped sterile processing department. Various medical specialties, including orthopedics, podiatry, and ENT, will benefit from this new setting.
