North York’s New Patient Tower and New Procurement Model Adoption of The Alliance – Rationale and Opportunities in the Ontario Marketplace BC

The New Patient Care Tower marks North York General’s (NYG) largest expansion in its 56-year history, adding up to 317 private patient rooms and approximately 100 net-new acute care beds. The new facility will connect seamlessly to the existing hospital, expanding NYG’s capacity to serve a rapidly growing and diverse community.

Delivered in partnership with Infrastructure Ontario, the project is Ontario’s first healthcare Alliance delivery model. This session will explore how the Alliance model differs from traditional approaches such as P3, Design-Bid-Build, and Construction Management – focusing on its collaborative structure, shared risk-and-reward framework, and best-for-project decision-making. The session will conclude with lessons from NYG’s experience and what the healthcare sector should watch for as the Alliance model is implemented across future projects.

The session will begin with a short 10–15-minute presentation, followed by a moderated Q&A with the panel.
