African Medical Centre of Excellence
Type: Healthcare
Completion: 2025
Size: 29 000m²
Value: USD 330 million
Client: Cappa D’ Alberto / Afrexim Bank
LEED/EDGE/GREENSTAR: Targeting LEED v4 Silver Certification
The multi-phased African Medical Centre of Excellence (AMCE) is a landmark healthcare facility in Abuja, Nigeria, developed in partnership with King’s College London. It is designed to serve, not just Nigeria, but the entire West African region and beyond, addressing the pressing issue of outbound medical tourism due to limited access to specialised care.
AMCE delivers world-class medical services in specialties including Oncology, Haematology, Cardiology, Radiology, and Emergency Medicine, with a strong focus on research and innovation. The facility features advanced infrastructure, including:
- 5 state-of-the-art operating theatres
- 3 Catheterisation labs
- LINAC and Brachytherapy units
- CT, SPECT, MRI and other imaging suites
- Clinical and Stem Cell laboratories
SVA International served as the Head Design Consultant, responsible for detailed design, coordination of services, and construction documentation. The project was executed using Revit and BIM, integrating architecture, structure, MEPF, and façade systems. The design adhered to British Building Codes, UK Healthcare Standards, and local Nigerian regulations, with a target of LEED v4 Silver Certification, focusing on sustainability in site development, water and energy efficiency, materials, and air quality.
The project comprises three buildings:
- Main Hospital Building: ±29,000m² over 7 storeys
- Cyclotron Building: ±700m²
- Ancillary Building: ±2,800m², housing critical infrastructure like power (Back-up and Generation), water, sewer, and waste treatment systems
This is the first phase of a larger development, with future expansions set to grow capacity to 500 beds, introduce a Research and Training Centre, medical office spaces, and on-site accommodation. Over the next five years AMCE aims to impact 250,000 patients and generate over 3,000 job opportunities.
