BATTLEFORD - The Battleford District Care Centre project has moved to the business-case phase, as the province has now released a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a consultant team.

The selected consultant team will provide professional project management and multidisciplinary advisory services to complete a comprehensive business case for the new facility.

The long-term aim is for the aged facility to be replaced in the future.  

The current Battleford District Care Centre offers long-term care services to the Battlefords and surrounding communities. It is not designed to meet modern standards of care, and a business case is required to "validate potential replacement options," the province says.

The business case will undertake site-assessments, develop capital options, provide a Class D (+/- 40 per cent) cost estimate, and high-level risk and project- phasing analysis.

The business-case phase will prepare the project team to move into the pre-design and design of the new facility.

The RFP was posted on sasktenders.ca earlier this month.

The 2024-25 provincial budget earmarked $250,000 to advance planning for the Battleford District Care Centre.
