During that time, Guangzhou was renewing its approval procedures for construction projects, and the COVID-19 outbreak changed the requirements of hospital construction. In addition to focusing more on spatial planning and layout, the integration of specialized departments, large-scale medical equipment, and numerous intelligent systems increased the complexity of hospital construction projects. The success of these projects often hinges on the quality of the management team. If a hospital construction project manager lacks experience and an understanding of the project’s key aspects, they may struggle with organization, management, and problem-solving, leading to rework, resource waste, and delays. This paper uses the construction of a new Guangzhou 12th People’s Hospital branch as an example to describe the key points and difficulties in each stage of project construction and proposes solutions for the management of similar projects in the future.</abstract><keywords/></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Li J, Fan K, 2019, Medical Flows and Space Organization, Building Industry Press, Beijing, 16–17.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B2" content-type="article"><label>2</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Zhang L, Xu G, Tan J, et al., 2020, New Era General Hospital Building Design Guides, China Building Industry Press, Beijing, 112–119.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B3" content-type="article"><label>3</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Zhou Y, 2021, Application of BIM Technology in Medical Specialty, Southeast University Press, Nanjing, 148.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B4" content-type="article"><label>4</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Zhu X, 2020, Manual for Consultation and Design of Health Care Facilities, China Building Materials Industry Publishing House, Beijing, 395–398</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B5" content-type="article"><label>5</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Zhang D, Yin X, 2019, Research on BIM Technology Application in Hospital Engineering Projects, Jilin University Press, Changchun, 22–30.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B6" content-type="article"><label>6</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Huang Y, 2022, New Thinkings of Hospital Construction in Wisdom Era, Jiangsu Phoenix Science and Technology Press, Nanjing,102–108.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B7" content-type="article"><label>7</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Liang M, Sun Y, Hang X, 2019, Guideline of Chinese Hospital Construction, Research Press, Beijing, 134.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B8" content-type="article"><label>8</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Shen W, 2022, Technical Guide for Fire Control Acceptance of Construction Projects, Southeast University Press, Nanjing, 256–259.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B9" content-type="article"><label>9</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Zhang P, 2014, Concise Manual for Inspection of Construction Project Quality Acceptance Project, China Building Industry Press, Beijing, 66–75.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref><ref id="B10" content-type="article"><label>10</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Zhang Y, 2017, Project Manager Practical Manual, China Building Industry Press, Beijing, 91–93.</p><pub-id pub-id-type="doi"/></element-citation></ref></ref-list></back></article>
