Infrastructure Ontario (IO) and the Weeneebayko Area Health Authority (WAHA), in partnership with the Ontario government, have awarded a fixed-price contract of $1.8 billion to Pomerleau Health Partners to design, build and finance the WAHA Redevelopment Project.

The Pomerleau Health Partners team includes:

  • Applicant leads: Pomerleau Inc.
  • Design team: Kasian Architects Ontario Inc. and Bertrand Wheeler Architecture Inc.
  • Construction team: Pomerleau Inc.
  • Financial advisor: PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP

The WAHA Redevelopment Project is being delivered using a progressive public-private partnership (P3) approach, which fosters collaborative development of project requirements, design, pricing and risk management.

IO and WAHA signed a Development Phase Agreement with Pomerleau Inc. in January 2023 following an open, fair and competitive request for proposals process that began in January 2022. Throughout the Development Phase, Pomerleau Inc. worked collaboratively with IO and WAHA, as well as with the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Long-Term Care, and Indigenous Services Canada, to define and refine project requirements to advance the design and confirm fixed pricing.

Now that the Development Phase is complete and the P3 contract has been awarded, Pomerleau Health Partners is on site to redevelop the hospital, and construction is expected to be complete in 2030.
